Tom Toles for November 17, 2017

Yeah, that’s gonna go so well for them. Have they looked at the elections that have happened lately? I can’t be the only one who knows where to get a pitchfork, tar and feathers.

Excellent.

THIS REPUGNANTAN ERA – {1.40 limericks}

This Repugnantan era is saddening,

with our future Further baddening.

It might not be

that we’ll Ever see

our nation’s recovery

of a thing so loverly

as halcyon days less maddening.

======

Totally. Nails. It. Time this is all over, the voters, even may of the Tea Party types, are going to come after the GOPigs like a pack of rabid Tasmanian devils.

Motive? Hows about psychopathic, and oligarchic, insanity?

On track to fail. Keep wasting your time until Nov 2018.

Trump Supporters are wacko. They hate unions because they don’t want to get paid too much. They hate healthcare because minorities get it too. They love guns and war and don’t care what they costs in lives and money. They hate the govt helping its citizens because it costs too much but again don’t care how many trillions you throw away on war. People are shot by the 1000’s and they don’t care because they love their guns more than people and call themselves Pro Life. The list goes on and on and on.

UP THE CREEK WITH A POOR PADDLER – {Rhyme}

Our moods are down, – our hopes are weak.

What makes us frown: – the news is so bleak. – - -

- – - Our nation might drown; – we’re up the creek, …

… and the Trumpian clown, – he has the cheek

to say to sit back and trust HIS paddling.

NO!! We want his soon skedaddling.

Partisan politics has nothing on partisan voters. They’d vote for Charles Manson if he had an R after his name.

Since “the poor you will ALWAYS have with you”, why do they need health care?

THE OLD “MORAL MAJORITY” - {rhyme and coda}

Recall Jerry Falwell’s “Moral Majority”: -

- Would THEY have granted any “moral authority”

to an Alabam judge

who often would fudge

on abstinence as meeting a morals-priority?

… Coda:

What would’ve been their understandments

of the list of Don’ts in our guideline Commandments?

IT’S RIGHTFUL – {rhyme}

Autumn. The night-time sky is a garden

of budding stars, and the moon is a-bloom.

Refreshing it is. It’s delightful.

But I hear the news. I feel my soul harden.

The sky’s like a garden disguising our tomb.

News about Trump. It’s frightful.

Never will America grant Trump a pardon

for our gloom. We want to return to the womb.

Drag Trump to a dumpster. It’s rightful.

==========

A nation without self-respect does not care about the health or prosperity of the average citizen, does not get involved in selecting its representatives, and allows the wealthy to have stealth control of the government. Is that what we have become?

The “motive” is well know Mr. Toles. It’s tax cuts for the rich regardless of the damage and long term consequences.

Where are all the so-called ‘conservatives’ claiming how great this tax ‘reform’ is great for the country?

Tax cuts are just a means to an end for the Middle Class, Unions, the New Deal all to disappear in a puff of deficit pay offs.

Those elephants had better be careful. trump just made it legal to import their body parts into the US. Trophy hunters are gonna be ecstatic.

Why have a gun if you’re not going to use it? They just have to get something done, whether it makes sense or not. Otherwise, everyone will know they can’t get anything done! I mean – it’s been 8 years, we already know they can’t get anything done. Why worry about it now?

So let that compromise-ridden plan die, as long as you can stall its death long enough not to have a gap. Then, when The People take back their country, we can have health care for everyone like all the civilized nations do.
