The Rallies Continue

The Trump thank-me rallies continue

As Trump hops from state to state,

Expecting applause and adulation

From loyal fans who congregate.

 

Trying to sound presidential

Is a challenge for one ill-equipped

To speak without a teleprompter

And sound articulate when off script.

 

To Trump press conferences

Are useless, senseless rigmarole.

He is more comfortable

Tweeting and being an Internet troll.

 

But how he loves his thank-me rallies!

He can stand on the stage and address

All of his vague promises

Without questions from the press.

 

Cheering crowds of people show up,

Praising Trump's theatricality.

Funny, many supporters share

The man's alternate reality.
