The Bumbler in Chief

During Trump's campaign we saw

How very low the man could stoop

When it came to insulting any

Individual person or group.

 

The Gold Star family Khan, for example,

Received a heap of Trumpian abuse

As Trump blasted the family with

Insults, childish but profuse.

 

But even when Trump makes an attempt

To say the right thing, he still bumbles.

His team can pass him the ball, but then

The clueless president still fumbles.

 

He can have General Kelly

Speak in his defense, but then

On the next opportunity,

He'll stick his foot in his mouth again.

 

From someone in Trump's position we

Expect much more finesse, but alas!

In the meantime all we can do

Is say to ourselves, "This, too, will pass."
