Strength

The strongest man I ever knew is not at all muscular he can't lift a lot has never tried a bench press or squat He's a modest fellow who occasionally expresses an unpopular view … takes a ton of abuse ~ never so much as says 'boo'

silence is golden...t-rump's mouth fights it every step of the way

Trump's way is the antithesis of strength. Someday he'll be exposed for what he is. If not in this world, then in the next one...

Definition of true strength. We need more people willing to express unpopular, politically incorrect views form a place of true conviction. Nicely summed up in verse.

That is the kind of strength that I wish I had...the strength to keep my mouth shut at times. :) Just kidding my friend. Really enjoying your poetry.
