Trump, In Verse

I don’t want to be Herbert Hoover – the economy crashed on his watch.
I’d rather have everything crater right now and let Biden get blamed for the botch.
So what if it means stocks would plummet, and wipe out folks’ 401(k)s?
It’s less about guarding prosperity; more about ego and me getting praise.

Now, Hoover took over from Coolidge, and Calvin was known to be “silent” –
that’s one word that won’t be attached to my name; the one that perhaps will be is “violent,”
since I’ve said that bedlam is just ‘round the bend, using language that riles and forebodes –
while all the time spinning conspiracy theories so faith in elections erodes.

The blame for that grim Great Depression? Some say that we shouldn’t blame Herbert.
But, still – it’s forever attached to his name, just as Jeffrey Epstein was a pervert.
And what’s being fastened to my name? “Narcissist,” “Vengeful,” “Day-One Dictator.”
Unquestionably, if I’m POTUS again… the depression to come will be greater.
