Just when you thought insanity
\ncould not go up a notch,

\ndeath count on his watch.
\n“It’s tape delay, so I must say
\nI’ve killed so many more.
\nIn this past week, I reached my peak.
\nIt’s a tremendous score.
\nQuite soon two-hundred thousand
\ncould\u00a0be within my reach.
\nI’ll write a new Book of the Dead
\nfor reading on the beach.
\nBy the way, Mar-a-Lago
\nmust be proclaimed a shrine.
\nAnd Romulus and Remus,
\nthese two great Sons of mine,
\nhave been named as apostles
\nto the best God, Money.
\nIvanka’s been promoted
\nfrom Daughter up to Honey.
\nAnd Barron, I am sad to say,
\nhas been put in a cage.
\nHe needs to speak American
\nbefore he comes of age.
\nAll I can say is watch me next week,
\nduring My convention.
\nI’ll even have My Pillow man.
\nNow, what a great invention.
\nThe crowd will be all virtual,
\nso there won’t be no shootin’.
\nAnd, just a hint, a secret guest.
\nHis last name rhymes with Gluten.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
