To borrow from Jeff Foxworthy
of Blue Collar Comedy
if after a yearlong pointlessly incendiary
and somehow increasingly unhinged
and ignorant campaign
you stroll into Congress
for a meet-and-greet
with Republicans
get asked about protecting Article I
of the Constitution
and respond by listing numbers
until you name the non-existent
"Article XII"
tell the other Arizona senator Jeff Flake
who was not taken
as a POW
and is unwilling to support you
because of your comments
about a Hispanic judge
and is actually not up
for re-election
that you will make sure
the senator loses his election bid
and call absent senator
Mark Kirk a "loser"
you might be Donald Trump.
