The End He Earned
Trump was four years of storm and strife,
With crimes large and small his term was rife.
With a last fake simper,
Not wth a bang, but a whimper,
The 45th President said, “Have a good life.”

Recruiting a New Gang
Trump’s four years were no walk in the rose garden,
And as he slinks into history, few are feeling maudlin.
No, it’s a day for the odds-makers,
Who are finding plenty of takers
To bet on which and how many criminals he’ll pardon.
The Second Time
Donald Trump owns a distinction no predecessor has attained.
He earned it through sedition, encitement and bloodstains.
Though not an honor o’er which he’ll gloat,
History will nonetheless ever note
That President Donald J. Trump has been impeached — again!
Losing Loser Who Lost
He’ll be recalled as our worst president and greatest of scofflaws.
His administration’s record will give future historians pause.
But his greatest achievement —
Born of lies, hate and bereavement —
Is the creation of the myth of Donald Trump’s Great Lost Cause.
King Rat, Abandoned
Donald Trump’s seditious insurrection
Has fostered a wave of resignations.
In a state of hugh dudgeon
His once-loyal followers trudge on,
Leaving Trump angry, vengeful, in isolation.
Pence on the Fence
Presiding when Congress certifies electors,
Mike Pence will be “Democracy’s Protector.”
If he delivers for Trump,
He’ll get over the hump,
If not, he’ll be proclaimed a Trump defector.
A Capitol Crime
Trump takes his extremes further and further,
Like his 19th phone call to Georgia’s Raffensperger.
With cretinous conspiracies
And hairebrained heresies,
He pursues one cynical goal — U.S. democracy’s murder.
Not Through — Coup!
After the election we thought Trump was through.
Now we’re worried about how much damage he will do.
Yes, he’s meeting behind closed doors
With whackjobs, cranks and conspirators,
Not doing his day job — just planning out his coup.
Lord of Soredom
Trump came into office as a phony and a poser,
Positioning himself as a world-class deal-closer.
But given his post-election antics,
It’s not even a question of semantics —
He’ll be remembered as being the world’s sorest loser.
Or Tricky Gimmicks
It’s the power of language that fuels politics,
But under duress, spokespersons forget their scripts.
Which caused that zany
Kayleigh McEnany
To accuse the U.S. courts of stealing Trump’s election using “gimmicky tricks.”
