OrangeVerse XLII: Card Carriers

The president and his great vice president went to the NRA convention to chat with patriots and stuff. In case you weren't invited, here are some poetic excerpts from Donald Trump's remarks. In verse, of course.  Trump's remarks were before the ouster of Ollie North as president of the NRA, which forestalled the ouster of Wayne LaPierre as CEO of the group. 

We Are The Champions

Chris Cox Wayne LaPierre Oliver North --

I've been following Oliver

for a long time. 

Great guy. 

Three extraordinary champions for the 2nd Amendment

And I'm a champion for the 2nd Amendment

and so are you. 

It's not going anywhere.

It's under assault.

It's under assault

but not when we're here.

Not even close. 

Most Importantly

I want to thank all of you

the proud

card-carrying

members

of the NRA. 

Every day,

you stand up for our

God-given rights

without exception

without fail, and

without apology.

Thank You. Thank You.

Together we are fighting

for the timeless values that

have build and sustained our nation.

And our nation is greater today

than it has ever been. 

Stronger. Richer. 

We're doing better 

than ever before.

We are Great Americans.

You're doing a great job. 

Believing in our Beliefs

We believe in the rule of law.

And we will always protect and defend

the Constitution of the United States.

And there are some people

that are running right now; 

I don't think they have

that number one on their list.

Power to the People

Every day of my Administration

we are taking power out of Washington DC

and returning it to the American people

where it belongs. 

And you see it now

better than ever

with all of the resignations

of all of the bad apples.

They're bad apples.

They tried for a coup; it didn't 

work out so well.

And I didn't need

a gun for that one, did I?

What's it Called?

It's called what we all together

have done - started two and a half years ago

on that great November 8th.

That was a great day.

Remember that day?

And in a year and a half

we have one called "November 3rd."

It's November 3rd this time. 

Get ready to vote.

You better. You better

get ready to vote.

But it's all called

"draining the swamp"

and we are doing it faster

than anyone ever thought possible.

Very proud of that.

Defcon Three

Far-left radicals in Congress

want to take away your voice

your jobs

your rights

and they especially want 

to take away

your guns.

You know that. 

They want to 

take away

your guns. 

You better get out there

and vote. 

You better get out there

and vote. 

It seems like it's
a long ways off.
It's not.

There was more - a LOT more - about the economy and immigration and crime-living Democrats and Paris and guns and the Revolutionary War and de-regulation and the fake news and on and on and on it went. 

We did learn that there's going to be no more #MAGA, there's a new slogan coming - #KeepAmericaGreat I guess, which will look like #KEG spelled wrong on shirts and hats. 

There'll be more poetry for sure, and we likely won't have to wait long to get it.
