Who's Natalie?

Perhaps you've heard a name in the news

Or heard it mentioned in interviews.

People all over are wondering,

"Who the hell is Natalie?"

 

Back in 2021

A bunch of thugs were having fun

Ransacking the Capitol.

But, hey, where was Natalie?

 

Later on--we now can read--

Someone had written "Never concede"

To all the insurrectionists.

Ah, that was Natalie.

 

Now she's Trump's devoted aide--

Also a human barricade--

Who helps Trump with social media

Posts. Yep, that's Natalie.

 

A loyal, sycophantic advisor

And staunch MAGA sympathizer.

With access to sensitive information:

Ever-faithful Natalie.

 

People say she worked a year

Without a security clearance. Dear!

"Human Printer" and "gatekeeper"

Are other names for Natalie.

 

Shielding Trump from negative polls

And angry social media trolls,

She shows him only favorable

Coverage--his Natalie.

 

A constant presence at Trump's side.

With special bonds the two are tied.

Want a private meeting with him?

You'll see Trump and Natalie.

 

Her letters to Trump are rather revealing

And have a lot of people reeling.

She calls him "guardian and protector."

Lovely words from Natalie.

 

I wonder if Melania thinks,

"This whole situation stinks!"

Or is she quite relieved that Trump

Gives attention to Natalie?

 

However, be careful what you say

And do not ask for her résumé,

For Trump gets testy and is protective

Of dear, sweet Natalie.

The I-Don't-Care President

As Trump swindles America

And gaslights the public whenever he can,

More and more people can see

That he's a contemptuous, heartless man.

 

The USS Abraham Lincoln

Had been deployed to the Middle East.

The ship's deployment was far too long,

But Trump didn't care in the least.

 

The sailors' mental health was a major

Issue. Conditions on board were bad.

Morale was low. One would think

The president would find that sad.

 

But, no, not Mr. Lack of Compassion.

(A person cannot make up this stuff.)

According to Trump the ship had not

Been deployed long enough!

 

While people suffer from rising costs,

Trump doesn't feel an ounce of despair.

Affordability to him

Means NOTHING because the man doesn't care.

 

Having created an economic

Crisis due to his senseless war,

Trump's major concern is his ballroom

With its gleaming marble floor.

 

As people lose their health care, Trump

Displays a total lack of concern--

Something that is easy to do

For someone who has money to burn.

 

Despite the effects of climate change,

Trump pushes for more drilling.

His self-indulgent and narcissistic

Way of thinking is bone chilling.

 

How much longer can this go on?

Democracy has no warranty.

Has the country passed the point

Of no return? We shall see.

Saying "Good Riddance!"

Karoline Leavitt is leaving the White House.

Say "Good riddance!" instead of goodbye,

For anyone who cares about

The truth will know the reason why.

 

Whether it's about ICE murders,

The state of our economy,

Trump's tariffs, deaths caused

By cutting U.S.A.I.D.,

 

Trump's vanity projects, or condoms

Being sent to Gaza--heck!--

Constantly, she lies for Trump

While wearing a cross around her neck.

 

Isn't there a commandment that says

That one shouldn't lie? Ironic, no?

But if you do not lie for Trump,

You will get the ol' heave-ho.

 

When she isn't lying, she's

Attacking reporters and calling them names.

Hard questions that she doesn't like

Are "bullsh*t questions," or so she claims.

 

When it comes to Trump's bruises,

Leavitt asks, no, she demands

That we believe her story that Trump

Has bruises from shaking so many hands.

 

So Karoline Leavitt is leaving the White House.

But there's no leaving a sigh of relief,

For obviously, her replacement

Will have to lie for the Liar in Chief.

The Grand Manipulator

If you're supporting Donald Trump,

He thinks you are stupid because

He thinks you will stand behind

Everything he says and does.

 

He expects that you'll agree

That our economy's doing great,

Even though his tariffs and wars

Have caused prices to inflate.

 

He assumes that you believe

That our election system is flawed--

That he "lost" in 2020

Because of rampant voter fraud

 

And foreign involvement, such as China's

Tampering with voting machines,

Despite that there's no evidence

Of shady doings behind the scenes.

 

You will go along with him--

He thinks--every time he lies

And makes up wild conspiracy theories

And says, "Do NOT believe your eyes."

 

The thugs who trashed the Capitol

On January 6, says he,

Were patriots who loved the country,

And he expects you to agree.

 

And he thinks you're not smart enough

To makes decisions on your own--

That you will do whatever he says

While he commands you from his throne.

 

Trump's an expert manipulator--

An expert at stringing people along.

If he thinks that you are stupid,

The NEXT time you vote, prove him wrong.

Destroyed from Within

Putin’s having a great time watching

America being destroyed from within.

Trump is taking leave of his senses,

And people's patience is wearing thin.

 

Continuing to divide the country,

Trump is spreading a "communist" scare.

The fact that there is no threat at all

Doesn't matter; he doesn't care.

 

His nightly rambling social media

Posts from his phone--his favorite tool--

Allow Putin to relish watching him

Look like a silly, demented fool.

 

Depleting military stockpiles

On his senseless war with Iran,

Trump's too dense to realize

That he is basically Putin's pawn.

 

His groups of white nationalist

Supporters grow more out of control

While he as a wannabe autocrat

Continues to expand his role.

 

He wants to control the nation's elections.

Putin most likely gives him advice

On how to rig our future voting.

Democracy will pay the price.

 

Trump has totally weaponized

The DOJ to go after foes.

When it comes to being divisive,

He and his admin team are pros.

 

Whenever Trump disparages NATO,

Putin is in seventh heaven.

He also loves it when Trump insists

There should be a G8, not -7.°

 

Putin jumps for joy when he sees

Protectors of democracy fight

With Trump supporters who sing his praises

And agree with him that might makes right.
  

A weak, divided America:

That's what Putin wants to see.

If things don't change, we will have to

Say good-bye to the land of the free.

Poor ICE Barbie

Kristi Noem, we hear that you're

Divorcing hubby, Bryon. Oh, dear!

Poor baby! It looks as though

You are having a very bad year.

 

So Bryon is into cross-dressing.

My, my! What's a girl to do?

Is the problem that when he wears

Your clothes he looks much better than you?

 

Involved in so many controversies,

You seem to have been caught in a thicket.

But Bryon is truly lucky that he

Didn't suffer the same fate as Cricket.°

 

We heard reports regarding your

Alleged romantic involvement with Corey.°°

You both deny it, but still it makes us

Wonder if there is more to the story.

 

When you were homeland security

Secretary, how you lied!

While you have been in your new position,°°°

Tell us how many people have died.

 

Do you feel any remorse

At all for the deaths in Minnesota?

Here's some advice: move back home

And stay on your ranch in South Dakota.

ICE Kills Again

ICE agents have killed again--

Once more causing heartbreak and tears--

A hard-working man this time who'd been

Living here for thirty-five years.

 

Lorenzo Araujo worked hard to send

Three sons to college. A typical theme:

People who toil to help their families

Live what we call the American dream.

 

As unmarked cars cut him off

While driving, the victim tried to flee.

The agents said he tried to ram them.

In videos that is not what we see.

 

ICE again is using the same

Old story in order to justify

The killing of an immigrant

Who really didn't have to die.

 

Araujo had no prior convictions.

There was no need to target the man.

To ICE, of course, he was a villain--

A Hispanic person driving a van.

 

We hear the agents didn't have

Body cams. Couldn't afford them.

What? With all the billions of dollars

That ICE receives, agents could hoard them!

 

ICE, stop killing innocent people!

Stop tormenting our immigrant friends!

Stop the driving of unmarked cars!

Tell the truth and make amends!

 

Everybody, wear your whistle.

For a camera, your phone will suffice.

Record what federal agents are doing.

Abolish the agency. NO MORE ICE!

The World's Most Hated Person

People say we shouldn't hate.

They say it's hurtful, callous, and wrong.

I never hated anyone--

That’s until Trump came along.

 

He brings it all upon himself,

For he's a hateful human being--

Malicious, repulsive, disgusting, obnoxious.

At least that is what the world is seeing.

 

Christ and Buddha wouldn't have

Supported the hatred--not even a tad.

But billions of people have been on Earth;

Despising ONE can't be that bad.

 

To say he's the world's most hated person,

You do not have to go out on a limb.

The heartless, egomaniacal liar

Makes EVERYTHING all about him!

 

He lacks compassion, empathy,

Shame and remorse. He's indiscreet.

Thinking he's so important, he wants

The world to grovel at his feet.

 

And people who don't? Well, they'll get

A taste of the madman's retribution:

Attacks, baseless investigations,

And threats--overall persecution.

 

He tromps on our Constitution and his

Supporters are okay with it.

They see the wholesale corruption occurring

And let him get away with it.

 

The unforgivable deaths he has caused;

His job performance: a super flop;

All the damage that he has done:

The suffering and abuses don't stop.

 

I will NOT apologize

For feeling the way I do. No way!

The man is simply despicable

In every respect. What more can I say?
