Bizarre Reactions to the DNC

Rudy Giuliani is throwing a tantrum:
He thinks that the DNC*
Is anti-police, and so he's ranting
In typical hyperbole.

If he listened and paid attention
And shut his mouth for a while,
He'd realize how wrong he was
And maybe contain his bile.

Trump, the consummate opportunist,
Sees a chance to woo
Disappointed Bernie supporters--
The ones who are tried and true--

To vote for him--for Trump, that is--
Because they're feeling distraught.
They might be disappointed, but
CRAZY they are NOT!

On opening night Michelle Obama
Gave an impassioned address
And mentioned living in a house built by slaves.
Controversial? Yes.

Bill O'Reilly was offended by what
Mrs. Obama had said.
Slaves helped build the White House, he says,
But THEY were very well fed.
