Here’s what happens when you get a call from a very persistent political pollster while you’re trying to read Green Eggs And Ham to your godchild:
Who will you vote for, Clinton or Trump?
Politics has hit a slump.
I do not like Clinton or Trump;
I could not be that big a chump.
Would you like Trump’s giant wall?
What if Mexico paid for it all?
I would not like Trump’s giant wall.
I would not like that wall at all.
What about Clinton on college tuition?
Her plan will only cost $350 billion.
I do not like her on college tuition.
I do not have $350 billion.
Do you like them in the polls?
Do you like their policy goals?
Do you like them on Facebook and Twitter?
Do their half-truths make you bitter?
I do not like them in the polls;
I do not think that they have souls.
I do not like Clinton or Trump.
I could not be that big a chump.
What if Clinton found those emails?
Would you like to know the details?
I do not think she lost those emails;
WikiLeaks already has the details.
Would you like them in the White House?
Would you like them in a courthouse?
Do you think she’s guilty of treason?
Do you think he’s abandoned reason?
I would not like them in the White House.
I’d only like them in an outhouse.
I do not like Clinton or Trump;
I could not be that big a chump.
Would you like them in a sketch on Late Night?
Would you like them in a fistfight?
Would you vote for them on The Voice?
Pick Trump! Pick Clinton! There’s no other choice.
I would not like them in a sketch on Late Night,
not even if they promise to fistfight.
Where did the third party candidates go?
Tell me! Tell me! I need to know.
Would you, could you, pay more tax?
Would you, could you, trust their facts?
I should not have to pay more tax.
I laugh at those who trust their facts.
Would you, could you, with Sarah Palin?
Would you, could you, with Liz Warren?
No way, no day with Sarah Palin.
I’m kind of afraid of Elizabeth Warren.
In the fall! In the fall!
Would you, could you, in the fall?
I would not, could not, in the fall.
I will not vote for them at all.
I should not have to pay more tax,
I would not, could not, trust their facts.
Not with Sarah Palin,
Not with Liz Warren.
Not in the fall,
Not at all.
I do not like Clinton or Trump;
I want to take them to the dump.
They’ve turned me into such a grump.
Please, someone bust this political slump!

I had to share this. Even in Europe we don’t hear the end of the American political circus. I hope you get a giggle from this ingenious post, like I did!

Very flattered! And also sad that this is what the world hears of us. I’m almost positive we’re not that bad.

Let’s hope we don’t get Obama again this season.
I can’t see the difference between ’em.
It’s kind of an unsavoury trifecta
But what to call it?
A Trinton or a Clump

There’s another term for it, but it isn’t very polite and my mother reads this blog!
