Donald Trump, Pro-Vaxxer
Trump got his own jab in secret,
After a year of downplaying COVID.
Now he says it’s “great,”
But it’s too little too late,
And some anti-vaxx Trumpers might not live to regret it.
What Science Knows
Science says climate change causes California’s fire woes.
Science says climate change has got us all in its throes.
We believe the science,
But Trump remains defiant.
His idiotic response is, “I don’t think science knows.”
Where Was God?
Despite his troubles, it don’t look like Trump is quittin’,
And he’ll probably manage to evade a fate that’s fittin’.
For this universe is flawed,
Because if there’d been a God,
When Trump raised that Bible at St. John’s, he woulda been smitten.
Trump Compares Himself to Warren — And Trump Wins!
“People don’t like her. She’s a very mean person. And people don’t like her. People don’t want that. They like a person like me, that’s not mean.”
— President Trump, quoted by the New York Times, on why Sen. Elizabeth Warren failed to win the Democratic nomination.
Stock Market Doctor
Donald Trump’s approach to governing doesn’t inspire us,
And if we worked for him, he’d probably fire us.
But when it comes to our health
Versus protecting the wealth,
He’d sacrifice us to save the markets from coronavirus.
Champion of Women?
With sexual assaults on women his past is rife,
He didn’t even spend his anniversary with his wife.
Here’s one more reason women
Should not be voting for him:
Trump’s the first president to attend the March for Life.
A Rare Moment of Trumpian Self-Reflection
“You know it’s interesting, as I’m saying this stuff — you know, ‘They want crime, they want chaos’ — I’m saying all this stuff and then I say, ‘Gee, now I sort of understand why they hate me for it.’”
— President Trump, quoted by the Washington Post, in a rare moment of self-reflection before adding, “But it’s true.”
Trump Faux Fight with Fox Is Good for Both
“Trump’s faux-fight with Fox is designed 1) to add drama and excitement to where there is none; 2) make him the primary focus of events; and 3) temporarily complicate the storyline so viewers keep watching. Fox benefits from Trump’s periodic attacks (remember when he boycotted one of Fox’s 2016 presidential debates because it wouldn’t dump Megyn Kelly from the broadcast). They make the channel look like it’s standing up to the president, and Fox ends up looking more independent and credible.”

Lame Blame Game
After two more mass shootings, Trump seeks to lay blame,
And he doesn’t like “white nationalist” attached to his name.
Seeking to find fault,
Trump opens his shibboleth vault,
And trots out mental illness, the internet and video games.
