Is it because misery sells more than joy?

Perhaps all the bad news is simply a ploy

For the media on both the left and right

To whip up our anger and start a fight.

All the while great things are achieved!

The progress we’ve made is hard to believe.

I’m the first to support having discussions

With any and all, including the Russians.

It was great that Donnie met with Kim

Our diplomacy there had been fairly grim.

What’s stupid are all the claims we’ve won

When in fact, it turns out, nothing was done.

Who knows who holds this ticket of wonder?

If it were me I’d have to be six feet under

Not to post up and claim this ludicrous prize

Even knowing full well that it ruins lives.

Hard to imagine a winner of such bucks

Decided to pass because the lottery sucks.

Of course there’s nothing mad about it.

Record gains right after stocks were routed

Are as common as a teen who forever

Loses from speech the word “whatever.”

We’re becoming immune to life’s wild gyrations

They all seem normal now in this nation.

Without malice to any other religion

And even doubting my own a smidgen,

I do believe the universe is mysterious

And big, broad thinking is not delirious.

So on this day of miracles and nice

Think about the things that make you think twice.

If you ever want to make people frightened

And force anxiety levels to be heightened

Tell them something they won’t believe

About Donnie forgetting all his pet peeves.

Then add some unexpected steps taken

On bank stability, and confidence will be shaken.

Bless this couple for seeing the folly

Of all those cards, decked with holly,

And fabulous children in high end clothes,

With Labs and Retrievers, and they want you to know

What fabulous lives they are fabulously leading,

Everything is perfect, there’s nothing for needing!

There’s no light side or redemption.

Planned Parenthood is no exemption.

Even those groups intended to defend

The rights of women often in the end

Turn out to betray them like the others.

“Life-work balance” is a myth for most mothers.

There aren’t that many troops to start with

But bringing them home does indeed part with

The wishes of the Pentagon and advisors

And all ISIS terrorist survivors.

But who cares what they all say?

Vlad says withdrawal is the right play!

Incarceration and jail time is one thing

But THIS is truly a very dumb thing!

If guilty no doubt he’d be pardoned

And never do time and get “hardened”.

But pissed off witches will never settle

For anything less than a boiling tar kettle.
