"Hillary planted those lines in Malania's speech." . . . Please come CAPTION Steve Doocy!!!



Steve ("My sphincter is so tight, that when I fart only dogs can hear it&quot Doocy is saying: "I must admit, I didn't care much for Hillary before, but now, after everything points to her hacking into the RNC teleprompters and inserting two paragraphs from Michelle Obama's speech into Malania Trump's, why . . . . I didn't think that anyone would stoop that low!"

". . . the circus is in town." . . .Please come CAPTION Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke Jr.!!!





Sheriff David ("My men are just messing with you&quot Clarke is saying: "So I say to my critics, how is it demonizing Black Lives Matter to simply tell the truth, . . . which of course is that it's like an ungodly, snakepit of hatreds, violence, and satanic lies; or like a pack of jackals tearing into the soft underbelly of civilization; or like a viper with its fangs extended and dripping with venom ready to slice into the nation's exposed neck and tender flash. . . . Just how is it demonizing to tell the truth?"

"They're playing my song: 'I'm one of the sporting crew!'" . . . Please come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!




Donald ("P.T. Barnum was wrong. There are thousands born every minute.&quot Trump is saying: "Excuse me! . . . Excuse me! . . . Anderson, they've got it all wrong. The practices I promoted at Trump University did not result in economic devastation for communities like those in Cleveland. . . . The result, instead, was a type of adjustment, a realignment. . . . Like blowing your nose to clear out the nasal cavities. . . . I mean, you don't want to get sick, do you?"

The crazy ain't going nowhere! . . . Please come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!




Donald ("At least Pence is white. . . And a man.&quot Trump is saying: "Listen, guys, I know Obama can say comforting words after these tragic cop killings, but his body language shows you clearly that there's something else going on. . . . What it is, I don't know, but it's something dark and twisted. . . . It's like he's giving a signal to Black Lives Matter that cops are fair game, or maybe it shows he's undermining the police so that the leftists can take over police departments in order to repress the American public, or perhaps he gets sexually aroused when police are slaughtered (why is he always standing behind a podium, anyway?). . . . But I haven't really figured it out yet, so it's not fair to say."

"Praying would be like apologizing." . . . Please come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!!



Donald ("My feet are small too&quot Trump is saying: "Look, Leslie, if Vice President Pence walks down the hall to my office in the White House to tell me something he thinks I'm doing wrong, I could listen to him. . . . I could. . . . I mean, I can imagine that happening."

"In for a penny, in for a Pence." . . . Please come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!




Donald ("Even my closets have Jacuzzis&quot Trump is thinking: "Geez! . . . It's hard to believe. . . . A two-bit governor of a flea bitten state on his way to political oblivion, and I'm making him famous over night. . . . That's fantastic!!!. . . . If only he was worth a sh*t."

"I like my Mexican food smothered in white gravy." . . . Please come CAPTION Mike Pence!!!




Mike ("Oatmeal with honey? Isn't that risky?&quot Pence is saying: "Not only is it mean to call me Sarah Palin without the charisma, but it's unaccurate as well. . . . I don't have those pretty little lips, or the hair tilt, . . . Oh yeah, I'm not as smart, and I only wear a dress in private."



*****************************************************************************

I can't remember who called Pence "Palin without the charisma" but this CAPTION is deeply in his or her debt. (I think it might have been someone at DU. If I find I'll add on edit.) (btw, "unaccurate" is accurate.)

It was Eric Schmeltzer in a well paced and considered Huffington Post opinion piece:

"BLM, LGBT. What's the difference? They're both good sandwiches." . . . Come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!



Donald ("A military band makes me hard.&quot Trump is saying: "Well, I'll tell you, Bill, what got me is that Black Lives Matter held a moment of silence for that crazed cop-killer before their last protest. . . . With their heads bowed and fists sticking up in the air, like Heil Hitler, only worse. . . Everyone who was there saw it and I know they had it on camera, and from probably thirty or so angles. . . . Only the lying media deliberately erased the tapes and took a vow of silence just like they did in Jersey when Arabs by the tens-of-thousands celebrated the Trade Towers coming down. . . . Sometimes it's almost impossible to believe, Bill."

"Up yours!" . . . Please come CAPTION Trump's "former" Campaign Manager, Corey Lewandowski!!!




Corey ("I'm not cheap, but I can be had&quot Lewandowski is saying: "I don't follow, Wolff, how is still being on the Trump payroll while being an expert political commentator for CNN a conflict of interest? . . . I mean you both want the best possible information put out there, don't you? . . . And shouldn't I be well paid to be so highly valued? . . . Well then, who's got all the money? . . . Sometimes your questions amaze me! . . . And by the way, Mr. Trump isn't so happy with them either. . . . He just wants you to know that."

About skip fox

I am retired, now a professor emeritus at University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where I taught in the English department for 37 years. I've written 4 chapbooks and 5 full-sized books (all listed as poetry though many include other genres as well), including _Sheer Indefinite: Selected Poems, 1991-2012 (Univ. of New Orleans Press, 2012). I've also written a 500+ page bibliography of three contemporary poets: Robert Creeley, Ed Dorn, and Robert Duncan. I am writing now, both fiction and poetry, more now than ever. My first vote for President of the United States was for Dick Gregory in 1968 (Bowling Green, Ohio). Favorite quote: "It's easy to be an idealist if you don't have to mind the evidence, but no one said it was supposed to be easy" (Richard LaPauvre).
