42. Trump Administration Antics
Tue Dec 2, 2025, 12:54 PM
18 hrs ago


A senator said with a sigh,
“These leaders aren’t serious—why?”
On the Sunday news chair,
He declared on the air
That their antics were hard to deny.

A general, clearly perturbed,
Found a meme to be rather absurd:
A turtle with gear
Firing rockets with cheer—
Online, by a guy seen as a turd.

The world, watching each new headline,
Sees a nation that’s toeing a fine line;
With chaos and spin,
And reposts poured in,
It worries how long it’ll all shine.

A posting spree rapid and vast—
More than most fingers could blast—
Each minute a shout
Of opinions thrown out;
It all scrolled by dizzyingly fast.

Some wondered, “Who picks this whole crew?
A lineup so wild and askew?”
From weekend TV,
To advisors with glee
For plans that no grown-ups might do.

If one tried to craft, with a grin,
A plot where the grown-ups don’t win,
The script might align
With today’s storyline—
A satire too strange to begin.
