by Paul A. Freeman
A rambling Donald incites
his fans to treacherous fights.
So, shame if he sues,
the BBC news
for daring to air the highlights.
The BBC’s out on a limb,
for splicing a story. How dim!
With folk loudly booing,
and Trump maybe suing,
the BBC’s outlook is grim.
The Beeb is known sometimes to boast,
“We’re global, not just coast-to-coast.”
But due to spliced news,
if Donald Trump sues,
the BBC might just end up toast.
