It can be a bit difficult to judge a comedy bit by script alone, especially if it is stand up, because there is a lot that is portrayed with body language and attitude in that form.
I used to host open mic nights where I did both music and stand up between acts and I will say that I don't think political comedy works that well in such small segments. Politics is divisive enough on its own, but political humour, holy shit, great way to get a crowd to turn on you or to just not give a shit. People get enough politics in their daily lives to care about one guy's 3 minute routine.
You also won't stand out doing a bit on Trump. It's too overdone right now and I don't think your jokes are good enough to get people to notice you.
If you need more help on things like improv techniques give me a shout. I always found that was a better approach when being an unknown comic.
