The D.T. Playbook: Chapter 5 (Supreme Court Confirmations)

Promise to nominate a judge

Who will reverse previous decisions.

Relish the opportunity

To fan the flames of people's divisions.

 

Refuse to provide the senators

With all of the documents that they need

To allow for careful, researched judgment.

Your nominee will be guaranteed.

 

Be sure the person you nominate

Will have your back if things get hairy.

Agreeing that you're above the law

Is absolutely necessary.

 

Let ideology be

The key factor for stacking the Court.

Your starry-eyed supporters will

Give you their undying support.

 

Train your nominee to behave

Just like you when at a hearing.

Your base will consequently find

The person even more endearing.

 

If any dirt might come up,

Limit the background investigation

To make it essentially a sham.

And lie without reservation.

 

Persuade Republicans in Congress

To sycophantly do your bidding.

You scratch their backs; they'll scratch yours.

Works like a charm. I'm not kidding!

 

Belittle dissenters. People who don't

Support you, you humiliate.

Stick to this plan, for that's how you

Are going to make this country great.

Great day in the morning! I do like this. Congrats on making me smile...bigly! I always say that Trump is actually trying to Make America HATE again.
Very good work, indeed!

Have you read my Trump pieces?

TRUMP'S DILEMMA
There once was a fellow named Trump
More brainless than any old stump.
He wanted a wall,
Said when they asked, "how tall?
"How high can a Mexican jump??"

HEY MR TANGERINE MAN
(apologies to Bob Dylan...)

Hey, Mr. Tangerine man, post a tweet for me;

I've been waiting so impatiently to hear from you.

Hey, Mr Tangerine man, post that tweet for me

For I'm all signed in to Twitter, to go following you.

Man, you are a trip, what with your forked and lying tongue!

I am blind to all your faults

And I love all your assaults

When it comes to what you say,

I could listen all the day

For your holy wall I pray

Please keep out all those Mexicans!


Hey, Mr. Tangerine Man, I'll read your tweets each day;

Such attention I will pay.No matter what you say

I promise you, no wandering!

Hey Mr Tangerine Man,keep Islam away from me,

And with every toxic comment, I'll come following you.

TRUMPTY DUMPTY
Trumpty Dumpty wanted a wall,
But he didn't know how he could pay for it all.
He thought his pal, Vladdy, might float him a loan,
But the thought of the interest made poor Trumpty groan!

Then he thought,I won't pay it, as I sometimes do,
Even though Vladimir surely would sue.
That didn't disturb him, it failed to subdue...
He'd simply ignore bills, as some bad eggs do!

Unfortunately, his reputation was known;
No m en could he hire. Must he build it alone?
He gave this some thought for a minute or three,
Then decided, "Oh, screw it! I'll go watch TV."

He went back to his bed, where he raptly attends
The sycophant ramblings of Fox and Friends.
