News: Forcasted bad weather forces Trump’s inauguration indoors, and limits the audience. So many MAGAs left out in the cold. Foreshadowing?

Snow pushed the swearing inside,
and ticketed MAGA-heads cried.
Come on, break some glass!
And then move your ass,
to prove that you can’t be denied.

Remember, you did it before…
you busted down so many doors.
Your Trump-given right
is to scream, shout and fight
and wage an entitlement war.

News: Trump has 200+ Executive Orders ready, intended to shock-and-awe his critics.

Two hundred executive orders
from pardons to closing the borders.
There’s migrants to boot,
protesters to shoot,
and those tariffs on foreign exporters.

There’s so many standards to kill
and MAGA-heads craving a thrill.
They’re all seeking dibs
for dis-owning The Libs
and destroying this country’s goodwill.

News: Republican Speaker of the orders Jimmy Carter’s half-mast flag raised for Trump’s inauguration. Classy!

You don’t give respect? You won’t get it.
Your lack of regard needs an edit.
To cancel half mast
tells the world you’re half-assed
and heightens your country’s discredit.

News: Quantas South Africa forced to delay passenger flights due to possible debris from SpaceX rockets.

Debris from a rocket might fall on my head
and if it don’t kill me, I’ll wish I were dead.
Why is it my task to evade SpaceX trash?
Really, it ought to chase Elon instead!

Trump’s ambitions regarding Greenland and Panama are a monkey-see monkey-do reflection of dictators he admires. What could go wrong?

Will Greenland, Ukraine and Taiwan
be prizes dictators try on?
When Trump, Xi and Putin
make plans high falutin’
ambition’s the hill they will die on.

Is your craving for fresh land just shade
obscuring the pledges you made?
So often you lied
and now you must hide
lest your people find out they’ve been played.
