Abs...squaut...you...late. Today’s word.
I know, I was just teasing...................
Liberals are in such meltdown-
With all the howling and crying
As if Pres Trump were Satan
And all of them were dying
They say they’ll absquatulate
Every time a pres is elected
Who won’t give free goodies
Or act like they all expected
Maybe this time they’ll leave-
To the tropics or to the snow
Mexico or Great White North-
Anywhere-as long as they go...
Excellent!......A++++!.................
