Gershon Wolf Poet Clerihew

He Revels in Riches

   
	     Donald Trump, self-appointed Peacemaker
             His frantic efforts will soon gift him a pacemaker

                 He revels in riches and worldly luxury
                 ~ forgets that the Messiah rides a donkey

sara Etgen-Baker June 17, 2026 at 4:34 PM good point....me thinks sometimes that Trump does have that Messiah complex...but he's getting things done....better than the previous administration.

Ann Peck June 17, 2026 at 9:42 AM I love this poem, Gershon! Very true words. Right now, he has been talking for 45 min and the two yes men standing by him an are about to fall down. Is there an OFF button? Gershon Wolf June 17, 2026 at 8:07 PM I don't know. But DJT sure took the 'off-ramp' on Iran. Didn't finish the job, did he? Now HE makes Biden and Obama look brave. Sad, sadder, and saddest. ~ gw
