    I once had a favorite web site,
    It offered political insights,
    But woe was the day
    Friend Jaybird did say

    The press thinks that Trump’s lost the thread
    And that chaos is running ahead,
    So they talk to themselves
    About narratives he should shelve,
    While Trump tweets to his followers instead.Report

    The Left cries from months of dejection
    And wand’ring without introspection
    Trump’s tweets do distract
    Makes them ignore the fact
    That Bern would have won the electionReport

    I give you, the Clerihew

    A clerihew (pronunciation: /?kl?r?hju?/) is a whimsical, four-line biographical poem invented by Edmund Clerihew Bentley. The first line is the name of the poem’s subject, usually a famous person put in an absurd light, or revealing something unknown and/or spurious about them. The rhyme scheme is AABB, and the rhymes are often forced. The line length and metre are irregular. Bentley invented the clerihew in school and then popularized it in books. One of his best known is this (1905):

    Sir Christopher Wren
    Said, “I am going to dine with some men.
    If anyone calls
    Say I am designing St. Paul’s.”Report

    Is when a Chairmen acts like a bufoonyes.

    There once were some Ord’nary Gents

    Now their URL doesn’t make sense!Report

    After having a good-natured jeer
