No. CLXIV: NFL Today


By now, we know the routine. When Mr. Trump is flailing, he creates a battle between himself and a celebrity – a tempest in a teapot to divert attention from, say, the literal tempest that nearly swallowed Puerto Rico, and his dereliction of duty in addressing it. In the past, Mr. Trump has attacked Mika Brzezinski, Meryl Streep and others to try to change the subject from catastrophes he either created or failed to remedy.

Donald's reaction
is a distraction
disguising his flailing
faction's inaction

putrefaction he is
this “man of action”
add subtraction
end the transaction

fine people” defend
vile traitors' statues
marching with Nazis while
screaming “Sieg heil”

but anyone silently “taking a knee” 
is taking too great a liberty
and therefore must bid football adieu
PHEW

show me I'm wrong
I'll print a retraction
until then
Aux armes citoyens
