No Naval Knowledge

August 19, 2026 Buck Banks


For Donald Trump, the title “commander-in-chief” has no limits,
And so he thinks he has the naval knowledge of an Admiral Nimitz.
He wants to reposition conning towers
And go steampunk for aircraft throwers,
But he should stick to ballroom design and keep his mitts off battleships.

Lying Leavitt Leaves

August 13, 2026 Buck Banks


Karoline Leavitt is leaving the Trump White House life,
She was such a good liar, but she’s done with the tension and strife.
She was a terror at the podium,
Spewing falsehoods, spite and odium,
But she’s going to raise her babies as a Turning Point USA tradwife.

A Great Escape?

August 12, 2026 Buck Banks


Donald Trump’s approval numbers are cratering,
And his once-reliable MAGA base is wavering.
The midterms are looming,
The Iran War is booming,
Maybe what he needs is a truck airports use for catering.

The Low Road

August 11, 2026 Buck Banks


The contractor Trump hired was under-qualified and overpaid,
Though Trump says it was done by vandals with sharp blades.
But the damage wasn’t done by an Olympian vandal,
Trump did it himself, which is why it’s a scandal:
The Reflecting Pool was ruined by Trump’s 10-SUV motorcade.

Flight of Fancy

August 10, 2026 Buck Banks


Ron DeSantis once was one of the GOP’s rising stars,
But he fell from grace so very fast and so very far.
Congress gave Florida a $197 million allocation
Earmarked for electric car charging stations,
But DeSaneless would rather fund landing pads for flying cars.

Hey, JD, Can You Define Fraud?

August 7, 2026 Buck Banks

“If you are committing fraud against the American people, all of us in public leadership should be trying to stop it and throw you in prison for enriching yourself off the American taxpayer.”

Binds that Tie

August 7, 2026 Buck Banks


JD Vance’s social awkwardness extends into his married life,
Because he can’t stop referring to Usha as his “Indian wife.”
JD has also said he’s still wishin’
That Usha wasn’t Hindu, but Christian,
And that’s why JD’s looking down a very long road of marital strife.

Never-Ending Dividending
Buck Banks | Sep. 12, 2026

Pundits say that Trump’s $5,000 midterm bribe was an overreach,
And they agree that if lies were a crime, he’d be impeached.
Despite all the dividend promises he’s made,
The fact is, not one has ever been paid,
So even before the midterms, he already owes us $8,000* each.

*$5000 stimulus checks via “DOGE dividend”; $2000 stimulus checks via a “tariff dividend”; $1000-plus checks via “savings” from expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies
