Middle Americans, in their homely way,

Are often overheard to say:

'I was just goofing around.'

They goof and they goof and they goof,

And sometimes they goof a little more.

And then we get Donald Trump.

OK....I''ll stretch my imagination in generous spirit whilst being
expected to remain amenable to the point of view expressed
here for our attention.

Give me a break, MC. It's a poem! This is not the place for political dissertations, but in a democracy I'm allowed to imply that Trump is a crazy proto-fascist moron if I like.

Ah...back we go to "let's knock-Trump . But if you can cite one
positive from the Biden administration in the service of America
or world peace minus escaping viruses, I'll be reaching for some smelling salts.

I think you're right, Greg. It took me a long time to recover from one triple whopper in Memphis some years ago! Think what a lifetime of that does to you.
John - In some ways that's the worst thing about Trump. Some things he says are achingly funny (unintentionally, of course) but the prospect of him in the White House again is alarming.
Another point is that THEY can goof around and deliver Trump but WE (the whole world) have to live with the consequences.

And thanks to Tom, Holden, Steve, Stephen A, K Lynn, Manish, John GE, Tim, Paige and Jon for liking this.

Unfortunately rank stupidity is no joke.

It's difficult to understand, I agree, Steve, but I blame it largely on the US intake of burgers.
