  DONALD is alone in his office. He has a television set on his desk. no screen, with a mirror inside, so it looks as though he is on the TV screen.He pats at his hair, looks at his notes, then tells a page to show the Press in.

"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen of the FAKE NEWS, and hello Ainslee, from FOX...I am letting you ask me two questions, one for each of you.Yes, I know there are four of you FAKE news outlets represented here; MSNBC, CBS, and CNN, who is of course, the worst and the fakest.

, and THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES. You four will just have to fight over it.Oh, you were all going to ask the same question...what are the odds.FAKE NEWS; you're up.

NYT REPORTER: Why are you separating families at the border and putting babies in cages?

DJT: I heard two questions; that means you forfeit and you're fired!

NYT REPORTER:You can't do that! It's a two-part question!

DJT:Fired! Take him away, generals--can you do  the firing squad thing? What? Even for that? THAT WAS TREASON!

Oh,that damn thing. Everything I want to do is unconstitutional.

Turns his attention th the other news anchor.

DJT:Hello, Ainslee. Your question, please? 

FOX REPORTER: Your majesty!

DJT:Mr. President will do.

FR:Oh, bless you, sir! My question is, Mr. President, sir, How is it that you are so handsome and such a genius?

DJT:Excellent two-part question, Ainsley.Why don't you explain those things to me...my modesty prevents me...

Today is our day to eradicate the orange sycophants if we can! *yippee!* Your story sounds about as convoluted as the troll himself when in the throes of anger management . . . managing to whip up anger, that is. You illustrate how hard it is to grasp for threads of logic during the typical news junket. I'm sorry I might have to go throw up . . . (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

"...nice read..." went the goblin really not one to judge though, only suspecting the founding fathers might not recognize america today as what they had envisaged for it back then

I can't see why such a talented limericker wastes time on these dialogues.

[angel]

Limericks are fun, and I will certainly write many more, but I don't like to limit myself. Dialogue has its own reward, and I like to take that challenge, too.
A limerick for you:
Delmar, my curious friend,
You ask me why I'd want to spend
Time on dialogue writes
And the president's fights
I just like following different trends.

[Delmar Cooper]

Of heavenly descent, yon Angel meant
To comfort the afflicted and well, you know…
So, of dialogue contrived she didn’t relent
Thus dealt the comfortable a fearsome blow
Thence, in a thrice, hatched something nice
That lay her critic low,
A wicked throw, (hardly slow)
Into his face a pieous (sic) limerick went

[Neville]

Tis indeed a worry....... a great big worry.. nice write tho.... N

The saddest thing is that this isn't far from the truth. I leave the room when Fox "news" is on. One thing is for sure--about 35% of American voters have crap for brains.

Sam! Love the new pic--so that's where you've been! I see you've had work done...very nice!
