The Trumpiad

Cody Walker is smart and funny. And this book is smart, funny, musical, and angry. I love this poetic takedown of the orange mess that we have as president. You’ll love it, too, and you’ll be supporting the ACLU. – Sherman Alexie

from The Mad Realtor’s Song

He thought he saw Six Matadors
Converse in Basque and Spanish:
He looked again, and found it was
Six guys that Trump would banish.
(The adjectives that come to mind
Are scary, SAD!, and Klannish.)

 

Trump’s Acceptance Speech: The Aftermath

One pinch of blather.
Two gulps of gasoline.
Three scrapings of spleen.
Four racist something-or-other.
Five pats on the butt.
Six sad dog whistles.
Seven Cold War missiles.
Eight My God, this guy’s a nut.
Nine outrageous lies.
Ten outrageous lies.
