When a pandemic strikes and people balk

At keeping their distance, say while on a walk

Some folks get mad and vent their fury

Passing judgment on others without a jury.

But some helpful souls take a different tack –

A dash of whimsy to claim their lives back!

It’s not such a surprise coming from Kasich

But it’s good to see that some may switch

And vote for the person they feel is best

Without having to pass a party-line test.

The two-party system is not meant

To kill the potential for thoughtful dissent.

Who would have thought such a class act

Would stoop to this shortly after the fact

That his sentence was commuted for no reason

Other than the President covering up treason

And protecting his cronies after breaking the law.

Entitlement’s disdain is such a character flaw.

It’s an interesting dilemma, that’s for sure.

Donnie is a guy who takes lying on tour.

Joe for his part can’t keep the facts straight.

So in both situations the truth will stagnate.

But what do we want in the leader of our nation?

Some honest mistakes or manipulation?

Sometimes magic does its part

But hard to say it’s very smart

To count on it as the primary plan

To protect against the growing span

Of a pandemic that could be stopped

If leadership hadn’t fully flopped.

For all we know they could be right

And Tik Tok is a tool that just might

Be used by the Chinese to peer inside

American minds on a creative ride.

If Donnie bans it one thing’s certain –

His numbers will further drop like a curtain.

Does anyone actually pay attention to polls?

With all of the posing and use of trolls?

You’d think we’d have learned this lesson before –

Folks may not be truthful with a guy at the door.

I hope Joe and his crew take no comfort in this

Or else I suspect they will have a big miss.

You don’t have to agree with every ruling

To still see how the Supreme Court is schooling

The other two branches that govern our nation

In how to operate without partisan fixation.

Their opinions are influenced by their alliance

But with no voters to woo they can show defiance.

Necessity is known as the mother of invention

And alcohol companies have every intention

Of making sure that people don’t drink alone

Since drinking together has usually shown

That people drink more than they think they can

Making these helmets in general a terrific plan!

There now Donnie, see it wasn’t that bad!

No need for tantrums or getting all mad.

Masks are tedious and it’s very hard work,

That sort of stress can make you berserk.

So well done, sir, since you now have the air

Of a leader who at least pretends to care.
