King Don The Delusional

In another recent display of self-aggrandizement, Donald Trump proclaimed himself "king" after his administration
intervened to halt New York City's congestion pricing plan—a measure designed to fund the city's aging
transit system. Following this action, Trump took to social media, posting "CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD"
and declaring "LONG LIVE THE KING," accompanied by an AI-generated image of himself adorned in royal
attire. This move has drawn widespread criticism from political figures and the public alike, highlighting the
absurdity of his monarchical fantasies in a nation founded on democratic principles. 
Old Trump, in a desperate fling,
Declared himself ruler—a king!
With a fake royal pose,
And a mind that’s half-closed,
He proves he’s a laughable thing.

Hello Stephen,
Thank you very much for your further compliment. That makes me very happy. And also for your ‘like’. And yes, this deranged psychopath named Trump should be stopped immediately before it's too late for the world. Hitler once showed the world how to do it and everyone let him get away with it long before it was too late. He has now been in power for just over 4 weeks and has already destroyed more than Hitler did in just under 24 years (including the 1920s). Frightening!
Regards,
Rolph

Hello Tom,
Thank you for your kind words and the "like". That's very uplifting! Yes, it's scary how much this beast called Trump occupies my mind. Not to mention his henchmen.
You might be right with "his manipulating wand idea". Horrible!
He once said that ‘Mein Kampf’ is on his bedside table. He has certainly memorised this disgraceful work in order to test it on the world for a second time - with resounding success, as one can see so far. 😭
Regards,
Rolph

A pointed limerick, Rolph. Thanks.
He seems to have really lost it - if he ever had it in the first place - and it's dangerous for us all.

Rolph-I think Don has been reading Mein Kampf for too long

Spooky that we both had ' Don take two ' on our minds almost at the same time. I wonder if he has a mass manipulating wand

Thanks again-big time!
