Those Taxing Tariffs (Limerick)
Headline: “Trump’s tariffs might amount to the biggest U.S. tax hike since the 1980s”
And now my two-verse limerick:
A tariff is really a tax
That Trump’s hitting us with to the max,
Just to make his base think
Trump the “tough guy” won’t blink.
Dear voters, please give him the ax.
Donald counts on his fans not to know
That tariffs are taxes, and so
He keeps raising those taxes.
Here’s hoping the ax is
About to deliver its blow.
