WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump Administration wants to change the definition of a showerhead to let more water flow, addressing a pet peeve of the president who complains he isn’t getting wet enough.
Publicly talking about the need to keep his hair “perfect,” President Donald Trump has made increasing water flow and dialing back long held appliance conservation standards — from light bulbs to toilets to dishwashers — a personal issue.
The bathroom in the master suite high up in Trump Tower
Has a marble toilet, but its flush is lacking power.
And if you want to wash your hair, it sometimes takes an hour
Until your head gets wet enough inside your golden shower.
It takes a lot of water to lubricate your brain
And lots of water pressure to wash out a moral stain.
(Could there be a metaphor in there for your campaign
At the sight of soapy water, swirling down the drain?)
If you don’t want some bureaucrat standing in your tub
Counting out each gallon as you lather up and scrub
Then throw out your old showerhead and go buy one that’s newer
And you know who you have to thank, the nation’s Chief Shampooer.
Hilarious, as always. Somehow, years ago, my subscription lapsed and I stopped getting the emails. I hope that my lack of response and appreciation had nothing to do with the declining frequency. I missed a lot but today caught up with an Adler Frestival: Four Years of Newsverse. Lot of fun. Would love to see Jerry, Yahoo editor extraordinaire, find the time to rev up his poetic efforts once again. But it will be a challenge: being sarcastic during the new Biden Era of Sanity. Maybe there will be something in the campaign by Sean Hannity and Trump TV to paint Joe as an evil socialist even as he quells the pandemic, revives the economy and restores the soul of America.
