In less than a year, President Trump’s assiduous attention to the authority of his office and his gargantuan appetite for work has shifted the direction of government in a whole host of arenas.

Assiduous attention to detail,
Will vastly improve my posting.
Some mistakes are minor,
But some DESERVE the roasting!

So, Megyn Kelly, formerly a news reader who used her position to attack Trump on one network to get more pay from a different network, iss now dancing on stage to boost her ratings.

One wonders when (not if) she will next use her assiduously shortest dress to promote her best asset on a pole.

General Kelly described the procedure for notifying families of fallen soldiers in solemn and assiduous detail in yesterday’s press conference. The press responded like a pack of jackals, and the Congresscritter from Florida greeted his explanation like a laughing hyena.

We have a president so prodigious
He makes opponents look ridiculous
He beats
With just a tweet
The libs with barbs both sharp and assiduous

My wish today is that someone would begin to stomp assiduously on one of Frederica Wilson's goofy cowgirl stripper hats (preferably while she is still in it).   (Keeping in mind the official policy on Free Republic, I am not saying this should be done in a violent way, but, rather, in a vigorously assiduous way.)

General Kelly: Everyone says I am not a racist.
Frederica Wilson: Ah-said-you-is!

Her boudoir routine is not quite assiduous
Leaves home with greasy locks so ridiculous
Falls down a lot
Never was hot
Yet she thinks she should rule the rest of us.

Who is she?
