This made for some light reading as I finally near the end of Ulysses. Quite funny and a very clever idea. Rob Sears reassembled a collection of Trump tweets and quotes and stitched them together in individual poems, some of which are actually hilarious. Every line in each poem is referenced back to the original statement, which makes it even funnier, but also quite sad. Yes, these are real quotes!

As a Star Trek fan, I really appreciated "I am the innocent (pure) one!" (p. 97):
I love the universe
The bigness of it all
Space is terrific
Honestly I think NASA is wonderful
Reach out, seek and explore

But I think one of my favorites has to be "Good genes" (p. 91)”:
”All men are created equal”
Well it’s not true
Some are smart, some aren’t

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

Laugh out loud funny to start, then some quite poignant ones in the middle that reveal more about his deeper horrible creepy nature, teetered off toward the end, but a fun read none the less. Pulling together actual quotes and tweets from the trump formed into poems and haikus. Reveals him for the idiot he is, not that everyone can see.
