Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

Trumpety-Thump

Donald J. Trump gave the market a bump
"My financial smarts made all the stocks jump!"
   Then he bet on the Wall
   Let the government stall
Now this chump's made the market go thump!

James Horn December 24, 2018 at 5:12 PM Profits did give up and dump; No wonder we are a grump; Had to heed, Then pump need For absurd and call a sump. Gershon Wolf December 24, 2018 at 5:31 PM Ha, ha, James! Not to forget the financial slump into which we've been dumped---or should I say, duped. There go the 401k's and all the Boomers' retirements. Thank you, Mr. Financial Genius (Drumpf)! ~ Gershon

May your holidays be happy and bright.. ~Susan Gershon Wolf December 24, 2018 at 5:30 PM Thank you so much, Susan. And thank you for supplying just the right word to describe what's going on, i.e., mayhem. That's precisely what it is. Best wishes, Gershon
