Peace-Loving Trump (2-Verse Limerick and Haiku)

Friday, December 5th, 2025

It’s no secret: The Donald’s long yearned
For the Peace Prize, an honor unearned.
Seems Nobel’s prize committee
Agrees that Trump’s shitty.
So Donald was rightfully spurned.

But that ISN’T the end of the story,
For there’s NO quenching Trump’s thirst for glory.
That’s where FIFA comes in:
Hands a fake “peace prize” win
To a brute who loves waging outlawry.

*********************

Bigly Trump Honor:
FIFA invents a “peace prize”
for needy Donald.

Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize Blues (Limerick)

Friday, October 10th, 2025

Trump’s distraught: All his bullying failed.
He’s been told that a woman has nailed
The Peace Prize (Nobel.)
He’s in ketchup-hurl hell.
“It’s a DEI rip-off!” he railed.

No Peace Prize For Trump? Womp Womp! (Limerick)

Headline: “Trump Says He Probably Won’t Win Nobel Peace Prize”

Trump predicts he’s unlikely to win
The Peace Prize (Nobel.) Take a spin
On a guess as to why
Trump says HE’S not their guy:
“They don’t want to.” (Cue SAD violin.)

Hey Donald, I Hear The Nobel Peace Prize Tastes Almost As Good As A Steak! (Limerick)

Thursday, May 17th, 2018

Headline: “Trump’s Nobel Prize talk may have been a bit hasty, North Korea makes clear”

Has Trump been outsmarted by Kim?
Or out-crazied? Out-acted-on-whim?
Donald NEEDS that Nobel.
He’s in hell! What’s that smell?
Desperation, as deal odds grow dim.

Ode To Party-First Republicans

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Remember when you could tell the difference between right-wing loons and your average Republican politician? Unfortunately, that distinction is rapidly vanishing. And Republican reaction to 1) Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize win; and 2) Chicago’s failure to land the Olympics are but two recent examples.

Ode To Party-First Republicans (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane

When the Prez wins a prize, wingnuts sneer.
When we lose the Olympics, they cheer.
“Country first,” they once said.
Seems that sentiment’s dead.
If Barack killed bin Laden, they’d jeer.
