Reporters noticed something odd at the President’s recent press conference when he began answering questions in rhyme. When asked about a new election poll showing former President Trump leading the President by three percentage points, he replied.

So there’s a lead for that MAGA man Trump

I’m sure it’s nothing but a bump

When I give him some hell

A new story they’ll tell

And he’ll find himself deep in a frump

After getting over the shock of the President’s impromptu poem, a reporter asked about Lloyd Austin not informing the President that he was being hospitalized. After an aide whispered to the President that Austin is his Defense Secretary, the President sidestepped the question and instead gave Austin advice on getting well.

Put one foot in front of the other

And soon you’ll be walking ‘cross the floor

Put one foot in front of the other

And soon you’ll be walking out the door

Later, it was pointed out that the President took his advice from the Christmas special Santa Claus Is Coming To Town. Given Biden’s previous history of plagiarism, reporters questioned Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the incident.

Jean-Pierre denied it was plagiarism and instead was simply duplicative language. She further claimed that “People routinely speak in rhymes,” and added, “Roses are red, violets are bluey, smearing Biden’s name, is a bunch of hooey.”

Noted neuropsychologist Sigmund Noodle, was quick to reassure the public that the President did not have a stroke, but merely entered a new phase of  dementia.

“It’s called Robert Frost Syndrome, and is on the continuum between Dad Jokes and the final stage of humor which is Giggling While Blowing Spit Bubbles.” When asked what symptoms to watch for, Dr. Noodle said, “You’ll know the President is getting worse if he starts spouting Haiku which everyone knows is not real poetry.”

Later the same day, as the President boarded Marine One, he responded to a shouted question about his son Hunter. The President answered,

Why can’t you give my poor son a pass 

As press you should have more class

So he liked to snort toot

Right up in his snoot

If you don’t like it then just-

The roar of the rotor blades drowned out the end of the President’s limerick but the consensus of the White House Press core was that the last line was,“If you don’t like it, then just mow my grass.” Right-wing, extremist, Fox News hosts suggested the last line had nothing to do with mowing grass.
