Rethugs rip each other to shreds,
Exposing delinquent dunderheads;
Great crises loom for party backers—
Who corrals berserk bushwhackers?
What winning political party,
Faking it as hale and hearty—
Refuses to grow credible leaders
Shrewder than self-mocking tweeters?
What real, electable president
Succeeds by fouling his own tent?
What majority would back leaders
Cut down by envious interceders?
Barely convicted, Trump’s a loser,
Foul-mouthed, inveterate abuser.
Will hugging insurgent outlaws
Waylay a slew of legal chainsaws?
And when convictions confirm abuses,
No DeSantis fills Trump’s loathsome shoes.
With lightning speed come doltish stumbles,
A Florida storm of unforced fumbles.
Nominate any right-wing candidates
Who can commandeer enough states.
Will Haley, Pence, or the dismal bench
Avoid the crunch of the Biden mensch?
So when top leaders are disgraced,
What second-stringer takes their place?
What side-lined buffoon’s leverage
Conquers the Electoral College?
Can any real-world prospect boast,
“I will dominate coast to coast?”
What minority’s self-whittled size
Ever won the grand White House prize?
