Good Lord, He's a Bad Candidate

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: March 12, 2016

Why I hope Donald Trump is not the GOP's nominee…

Editor's Note: This poem was triggered by pictures of a crowd with raised hands, responding to GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump's call for a show of loyalty.



CNN

I pledge allegiance to a flag,
not to an arrogant wind bag.
When Trump insists I raise my hand,
my blood begins to boil.

If Trump's elected we would see
he'd call it Washington, DT.
The White House would be spray-tanned orange
and called Trump Tower South.

In real estate he may be great.
His wine's okay.
So, too, his steak.
But Donald Trump as President?
Good Lord, that would be bad!
