It was only a matter of time before someone would splice the words from Trump’s many interviews, incendiary rallies, and ridiculous tweets to create “poetry.” This is hilariously done here. On one page is the fake poem with each sentence or sentence fragment (including the title) numbered so the source can be found on the opposite page.

An example and personal favorite:

We have by far the highest IQ of any Cabinet ever assembled

Administration, David Shulkin
General Kelly is going to do a fantastic job at Homeland

As a Star Trek fan, I really appreciated "I am the innocent (pure) one!" (p. 97):

Do we believe in the gene thing? I mean, I do!
I'm blessed with good genes
Good (great) brain. Good-sized hands. German blood.

We have people that are stupid
They cannot help the fact that they were born fucked up
Slow horses don’t produce fast horses
