Hissy Fits

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth

Have been throwing hissy fits.

Sadly, their childish tantrums make

Both of them look like a couple of twits.

 

Petey was mad at photographers

At Pentagon briefings, for he didn't like

Photos that they had posted of him,

And so he told them to take a hike.

 

Donny is mad at our allies because

After the huge mess he has made

By starting a war with Iran, he now

Expects our allies to come to his aid.

 

The Strait of Hormuz has become

A danger to freighters that try to pass through.

He wants our allies to put themselves

In danger, but they say, No can do.

 

Such role models: Donny and Petey!

It doesn't take a genius to know

That that is what can happen when

Incompetent clowns are running the show.

Trump's War

Folks have lost their health insurance;

Prices keep rising higher and higher.

And yet Trump started a war with Iran--

Trump, the nation's number one liar.

 

We can't afford to help our people,

Whose struggles we should not ignore.

But we can afford a billion dollars

A day to fight Trump's senseless war?

 

The reasons change from minute to minute

As to why we are there, but know

That Netanyahu is happy. For years

He's wanted to lay the country low.

 

A U.S. Tomahawk missile hit

A school in Tehran. How we're mislead!

There's no remorse coming from Trump.

He makes up lame excuses instead.

 

The world's economy now suffers.

For Trump refuses to think things through.

It's as though he asks himself,

"Hmm. What would Putin do?"

 

Meanwhile Putin is helping Iran

Kill U.S. soldiers. Putin denies it.

But we know that whenever Putin

Makes up a story, Donald Trump buys it.

 

Despite Putin's involvement, Trump--

And this should really make your blood boil--

Eased our sanctions on Russia so it

Can make more money from selling its oil!

 

What about rules? To Trump's admin

There are no rules of engagement, for we

Can do whatever it takes to win

And be as cruel as we can be.

 

There's even talk of troops on the ground.

Is that for real, or is it a bluff?

The people have to stop the president's

Chaos and wars. Enough is enough.

What's More Dangerous?

Tell me: What's more dangerous than

A malignant narcissist? Do you know?

Well, a malignant narcissist

Who has dementia. There you go.

 

Even more dangerous than that

Is a malignant narcissist

Who's demented and runs a country

And runs it with an iron fist.

 

Also concerning are members of Congress

Who act like sheep that follow their herder,

Who let their ruler strip them of power

And let him get away with murder,

 

Who do his bidding even though

He's a venomous snake in the grass

Who bullies other nations while

Kissing Vladimir Putin's ass.

 

An autocrat who surrounds himself

With sycophants is scary indeed,

For they'll support his thirst for power,

Ignore his corruption, and feed his greed.

Good-bye, Kristi, Good-bye!

(This poem can be sung to the tune of the 1922 song "Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Good-bye.")

 

Good-bye, Kristi,° good-bye!

You've been ousted. Oh, my!

Please don't forget your blankie;

We learned that when you do not have it you get cranky.

Just imagine the strain:

No more luxury plane.

Protesters who

Know what is true

Are sick and tired of all the lying coming from you.

Laws you should not defy.

Good-bye, Kristi, good-bye!

 

Good-bye, Kristi, good-bye!

Why did folks have to die?

Ignoring those court orders,

You terrorized so many folks who crossed our borders.

But not only were they

Folks who got in your way.

People from here

You love to smear

And call domestic terrorists will not shed a tear.

All you touch goes awry.

Good-bye, Kristi, good-bye!

 

Good-bye, Kristi, good-bye!

Please, now, keep a dry eye.

Your make-up will start running--

That caked on goop that you think makes you look so stunning.

Lawlessness--your M.O.--

Makes us want to say no.

It isn't nice

When you run ICE

The way you did, which made us have to pay a huge price.

No, obstruction won't fly.

Good-bye, Kristi, good-bye!

°Kristi Noem, former Homeland Security secretary

Lying, Bullying Warmonger

A lying, bullying warmonger

Is what Trump is, without a doubt.

His strategies and motivations

Are not hard to figure out.

 

Netanyahu, the Saudi prince,

And Fox News--I'm not kidding--

Seem to be the ones who have

Encouraged Trump to do their bidding.

 

Thanks to them, we're bombing Iran.

However, the deadly chaos is spreading.

With more countries becoming involved,

We can see where the dangers are heading.

 

Trump is putting the whole Middle East

In harm's way as he seduces

Hawkish supporters to back him up

With nonsensical, baseless excuses.

 

He said that Iran was an "imminent threat"--

Another one of his countless lies,

Which are so blatant, obnoxious, and foolish,

And so easy to recognize.

 

While he's starting wars overseas,

He's letting Kash Patel run amok.

Patel, the head of the FBI,

Is such a flagrant, useless schmuck.

 

He is firing FBI agents

Who fight Iranian terrorism,

Making us more vulnerable!

It's hard to avoid pessimism.

 

As Trump starts unjustifiable

Wars and gets us into scrapes

With people dying, what does he do?

He talks about his ballroom and drapes!

 

We're being run by incompetent fools

Who focus on fame and money and war,

While people suffer, dangers mount,

Fears increase, and prices soar.
