There once was a prez they called Spanky
who got up to some hanky-panky
the lawyer who paid
while prezzy got laid
is now on his way to the tanky.

When your gaze is a menacing stare,
And your small, piggy eyes seem to glare,
And your mouth is agape ―
No, you’re not a Great Ape,
Just the POTUS they’re calling “Mein Herr”.

 

When three trophy brides of the Trump
began to show baby bumps
The Don saw their tummies
ran to porn stars and bunnies
who he paid to keep mum about humps

The Supreme Court just handed the Trump administration a loss on immigration - and Gorsuch was the tie-breaking vote

 

The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that part of a federal law that makes it easier to deport immigrants convicted of crimes is too vague.

Justice Neil Gorsuch, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, joined the court's more liberal justices to cast the deciding vote.

On Tuesday, President Trump did not even file his taxes.

 

Above the law ... again 

I've started reading his book. I can see why some people are calling him sanctimonious etc. but at the moment I think he's coming across more as the typical OTT wearing my emotions on my sleeve and crying at the sight of the flag American we all know and love. The kind of thing we Kiwis/Aussies/Brits would roll our eyes at - but I can also see where he's coming from.

Mission Accomplished - The Trump Kakistocracy is complete!

NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—Millions of Americans were stunned and incredulous on Monday after learning of a possible incident of bias at Fox News Channel.

At a time when so many American institutions have been under attack, the possibility that Fox, one of the nation’s most respected news organizations, might be susceptible to hidden agendas was too much for many to take.

In interviews across the country, Fox viewers expressed disappointment, confusion, and shock that a news network known for its exacting standards had imperilled its hard-earned reputation for fairness.

“I’m devastated by this,” Carol Foyler, a viewer from Scottsdale, Arizona, said. “If we can’t trust Fox News, who can we trust?”

Tracy Klugian, a viewer from Akron, Ohio, said that he had been “walking around in a state of disbelief” since he learned of possible bias at the network. “I’m trying to be strong, but it’s tough,” he said. “I know I speak for a lot of people when I say that today was the day that America lost its innocence.”

But some Fox viewers, like Harland Dorrinson, of Topeka, Kansas, warned of a “rush to judgment” against Fox, urging people to remember the network’s stellar record of journalistic accomplishments.

“Whenever there was a national emergency, whether it was Benghazi, Hillary’s e-mails, or Obama’s birth certificate, Fox News was there,” he said. “One little mistake doesn’t wash all that away.”

Oops. Double-posted...

You know there is a problem when you find it hard to tell if the Borowitz report is taking the proverbial or not!
