"Bag It All!"
He grabbed TVs, toasters, even a yak,
Crushed it all in his stretching sack.
Now half his junk litters the track--
But hey, he still thinks he’s got the knack!

"Crest of Me"
Look at me, everyone — behold what I've made!
A wave of pure genius, magnificently displayed.
I'm the crest, I'm the crash, I'm the storm in the stone,
A marvel in motion, admired alone.

“Ode to the Fed”
O pillar quiet, you keep the peace,
A voice that bids the storm to cease.
But if you bend to kings or fools,
The temple breaks, and chaos rules.

I fact checked this map on ChatGPT. China is the largest trading partner for over 120 countries now. Trump's starting a trade war is just sel-defeating nonsense; like shooting yourself in the foot.

A ChatGPT poem to help you "to laugh to keep from crying" (just a little maybe). Trump and Vance's farce setup with Zelensky left me aghast again for the umpteenth time, maybe the worst time ever:
