What Shall We Do with a Crooked President?

Take away his ice cream and his Fox News! Take away his ice cream and his Fox News! Take away his ice cream and his Fox News! Er-lie in the morning. Hooray, up we’re rising! Hooray, up we’re rising! Hooray, up we’re rising! Er-lie in the morning!

I have about 8 verses to bring to tomorrow's protest - I'd love help with more, and a warning if any of these are too harsh or tone-deaf.
  • Shave his head with a rusty razor
  • Give him water from Flint in Michigan
  • Put him in a cage like the kids he's tortured
  • Call in Mueller to investigate him
  • Make him pay a fine every time he's lying
  • Put him in jail with all his lawyers
  • Register to vote and flip the Senate!

Take away his golden toilet?

These might work as a sequence:

Investigate his High Crimes and Misdemeanors
Flip all his cronies and bring an indictment
Impeach him in the House and convict in the Senate
Throw him in jail like he said he'd do to Hil'ry

Random other possible verses:

Send him to a home with the other geezers
Make him go live with his buddy Putin
Make him watch an endless Maddow marathon

I have a couple witty mefites in my living room making signs right now, so I may be back with more.

Clever concept. I suggest avoiding the ones that encourage or hint at bodily harm / razoring / poisoning, so as not to end up on a Secret Service list. Plus, as they say, when you roll in the dirt with a pig you get dirty and the pig likes it.

Takw away his wig and sell it on Ebay!
Make him refund all his students!
Strand him on an island with Piers Morgan! (or other noxious celeb/advisor)
Publish his taxes on the internet!

I had a beautiful set of rhyming four, until I read killdevil's post.

Make him read a book aloud in public.

Hold him accountable for murdered reporters
Tell him the truth, that he's a loser
Shun him and all his Nazi brethren
Show him what happens when you don't pay your taxes
Take away his money/oh wait he doesn't have any

Send him to a home with the other geezers

This is ageist.

What would really hurt him...

Lock him up and forget he existed

Put his little hands in a pair of shackles.
Smash his phone and delete his Twitter.

To keep the right cadence I'd do - "What shall we do with a crooked leader?" President has an extra syllable.


I agree about the cadence, but he's no leader. 'What shall we do with the crooked Cheeto?'

Let him die alone in a public restroom
Let him be himself when he meets Saint Peter
Let him go to hell with his old pal Putin
Let him be remembered as Donnie small hands

Late but:
Surround him with love and compassion
Surround him with love and compassion
Surround him with love and compassion
The only way for us all to heal
