Trumple’s recent advertising
Seemed a gross attempted smear
Featured there the Star of David
(Not a sheriff’s badge, it’s clear)
Clinton’s portrait and corruption
Lots of dollars raining down
Anti-Jewish implications
For his neo-Nazi clowns
Something strange is happening
Something’s an anomaly
Trumple’s not an anti-Semite
He has Hebrew family
So, here’s Trumple candidate
Foul mouthed bigot for his base
Then there’s Trumple family man
Big, bad Trumple, not a trace

I’m fascinated by the lack
Of knowledge oft attending acts
Especially in politics
Where charlatans and lunatics
Prevail, resulting at the polls
In Congress fraught with sorry souls
This ignorant complacency
Can doom our great democracy
Electing to its leadership
A president who’s quite unfit,
A Congress that gets nothing done
And wars on end that can’t be won
I do lose patience when I hear:
“On politics, I don’t go near.”
This attitude, this stupid stance
Just means you’ll vote in ignorance
That in this information age
Gross ignorance is center stage

Based on my own experience of 40 years working in the Defense industry, I would say that Secretary Clinton was caught up in the relatively lax security environment of the State Department. This in not to excuse her “recklessness” in handling the 55, or so, Emails out of approximately 30,000; it is to put it in context. A relevant article, written by Bill McLeod (A Better World Is Possible) is at the following link:
Let’s hope a lesson, tough, was learned today
The FBI gave Clinton a reprieve
She neither lied nor acted to deceive
But negligent she was, it’s fair to say
Some several dozen Emails this comprised
Among the thirty thousand that transpired
She didn’t follow protocols required
To keep her mail from being compromised
It’s time to learn and then release the past
It’s time to gird ourselves to win this race
It’s time for legislation that can pass
It’s time to weld the Democratic base
This doesn’t change the contest Clinton’s in
A contest Clinton handily must win

Trumple met his Uncle Sammy on July the fourth
Trumple asked his unc about gov benefits put forth
Asked his Uncle Sam of Trumple: “Where is my tax money?”
Answered Trumple to his unc: “Indeed I haven’t any.”
Uncle Sam then questioned Trumple: “Where are all your billions?”
Answered Trumple to his uncle: “In the Cayman Islands.”

The GOP Senate, this year, is distinctive
In sixty years, this year has been least productive
Issues of urgency they have neglected
It’s not what constituents really expected
So what are the issues they should be addressing?
Issues transcending political referencing
Issues affecting our nation’s well being
Acts of priority we should be seeing:
Quit stalling on SCOTUS, its vacancy fill
Outlaw gerrymandering, fairness it kills
Tax carbon emissions, our oceans warm still
Ban all assault weapons. Reduce oil spills
Make college affordable; drop interest rates
Upgrade infrastructures; bring them up to date
Reform immigration, it’s never too late
On Citizens United, the ruling negate
So many more issues of merit I see
But these are the ones that most matter to me

The political conventions are just around the corner.
This summer’s conventions may prove unconventional
Each party has problems that could bloom sensational
‘Though leaders are trying to keep matters rational
Nobody knows what will be
The RNC is losing its sponsoring
Major establishments taken to ‘Trump Dumping’
They’re withdrawing support strongly protesting
Trump’s brand of gross bigotry
And who’ll be the speakers the RNC’s featuring?
Seems the convention the big wigs are boycotting
Trumple and Christy could be all that’s happening
I guess they’re something to see
Meanwhile the DNC’s issues are festering
Tuggings of war over planks that are platforming
Pulling the party to left of their centerings
Hillary doesn’t agree

Rep Trey Gowdy (R-SC), who led the Select Committee on Benghazi, released the committee’s 800 page report yesterday. [Rhythm of “Oh Dear, what can the matter be?]
Mighty Gowdy, investigator he
Chaired the House’s Benghazi inquiry
Formed to find the misdeeds of Hillary
Dooming her candidacy
Two years plus were spent on the inquiry
Seven million squandered so uselessly
Funds that could have rebuilt the embassy
This was the ninth inquiry
Trey’s committee published conclusively
Finding there were no improprieties
Nothing there that had enough potency
To doom her candidacy
Par the course, Republican stagnancy
In the House it’s their shameful legacy
No bills passed addressing necessities
Problems of real urgency

Who will the nominee pick as VP
For stumping with Trumple; who would agree?
Ryan ain’t buyin’ and Marco’s a no go
Palin is flailin’ and Carter’s a no show
Christy’s too risky and Walker’s a no no
Cruz is still bruisin’ and Paul has his own woe
The question remains: who’s to be Trumple’s mate?
Who has the right stuff matching this candidate?
Let’s see, Joe Arpaio, he hates Mex and blacks
Then there’s Janet Brewer whose tongue’s sharp as tacks
And maybe Don Rumsfeld who screws up his facts
Or General Petraeus, discretion he lacks
I guess we must wait until Cleveland, July
To know Trumple’s victim to run by his side
6/27/16
Oh dear, what will the future be
Now that England’s left Europe’s unity?
Will it wreck the global economy?
Nobody knows how we’ll fare
Central banks are nearing to foundering
Will they fail? It’s what we are wondering
Forty years of truce Brits are squandering
Their voters don’t seem to care
Trillions lost as markets are tumbling
Dollar’s up but sterling is stumbling
Here, at home, the Feds will be fumbling
Their logic, oft doesn’t square
Dear, oh dear oh, what will our future be?
What we see is fraught with uncertainty
I suggest, devoid of authority
Do nothing, but stay aware

Said Charles to David
Let’s buy this election
And who do we favor to win?
Said David to Charles
No easy selection
It looks like the Demos are in
Said Charles to David
We can’t let that happen
They buy into man’s climate change
Said David to Charles
That surly would dampen
Our profit with rigs on the range
Said Charles to David
Republicans voted
A nominee who’s even worse
Said David to Charles
It, too, should be noted
He seems to be short on the purse
Said Charles to David
I guess, on the Senate
We’ll have to expend all our cash
Said David to Charles
True! If we don’t win it,
The Demo’s will hand us our ash
