Cult of Persona--Err--Negativity!

"What we have here--is a failure to understand,"or, a mass

blindness of people to see the truth--yes, the day is fast

 

approaching when it'll be too late--what's to explain this man's popularity?

He's crude, insults everyone, and lacks both empathy and sincerity.

 

Seems the more outrageous things this Cult of Negativity says,

the more popular he becomes, in his quest to become pres.

 

It must be that Republican voters are in an inexplicable trance.

Zombies on auto-pilot are giving this guy his big chance.

 

How else to describe this enthusiasm to turn a deaf ear, a blind eye

to everything he spouts that goes against their interests--explain why

 

to me, cause I truly don't understand--what are the possible reasons?

It's like chowing down on steak, when you're a lifetime vegetarian,

 

simply because The Donald says meat is the best.

One day soon, if you don't wake up like yesterday, in the contest

 

for president, you'll come to in the middle of the freeway,

in your underwear, with no idea how you got there--the awful day

 

is fast approaching, it's not too late--WAKE UP and

pull your zombie heads out of the hateful and negative sand!

Easy to explain Michael. Trump is giving them what they want desperately to hear and they only hope he is sincere in what he says. For far too many years the conservatives have elected people to offices who promises they had uttered during various campaigns, only to go to Washington, and once there they seem to have forgotten their campaign promises and let the the Democrats roll all over them without even putting up a fight. The voters are tired of it, foul mouth or not, they have endorsed this man Trump, I include myself. If he were to get elected and turns his back on those who elected him as has been done for decades I'm just not sure what will happen next.

Thanks, Jerry, and most of the few policies he's endorsed, like building a wall on the border with Mexico, and making Mexico pay for it, are ever going to happen, and frankly, is totally irresponsible to promise voters. While I can understand the voters liking his rhetoric, believing it is a totally different thing. You said it yourself, he's only saying what people want to hear, and you're fooling yourself if you think ANY of what he is proposing has a chance in hell of ever happening. And that's just one example of people being fooled, although he never gets specific--he just says he'll everything, GREAT!

Well, I guess we will just have to wait and see, won't we Michael?

[Michael Stevens]

Yes, we will!

[Michael Stevens]

And thank you for a debate, instead of name-calling!

[JerryB]

You did all the name-calling within the structure of your poem for me. You sounded a lot like me when I'm in the mood.

Fair enough, but I don't think I crossed the line into rude.
