№ 384: Flown The Coup?

EXCLUSIVE!

Theatrical Cement Company News (TCCN) has exclusively learned exclusively that President Donald J. Trump is missing from the White House. The following ketchup-smeared note was found on his pillow.

Ivanka Marla Melamine,
I ran on a platform opposing Iran.
Which I said I'd do better than anyone can.
I ran saying only I could
bring peace to Middle East neighborhood.
I ran saying I'd fix the U.S. economy.
(Which would be true. . .if you had a lobotomy.)
I ran promising I'd appoint judges
who would adhere to troglodyte grudges.
I ran not admitting I had a crush on
Vlad the strong, bare-chested Russian.
(He colluded with me, not with him.)
I ran telling lies and I criticized
to prove to the proles I was one of their guys.
But if traitors criticize me
I say deport them to some shit-hole country.
I ran pretending to be that I'm not,
a basically bigoted rich dumb-ass snot.
(Which, truth to tell, is just what I am.)
I ran running my mouth like a bugler
which somebody told me is pure Dunning-Kruger.
In fact, my whole life has been one big ass scam.
When Robert Mueller asks where I am,
if he water boards you, tell him I ran.

More details as they become available. We now return you to rhyme-free reality.
