Trump has just discovered there’s a “b” in “dumb.” (1)
Has he also noticed there’s a “b” in “crumb?”
“Subtle,” “debt,” and “doubt:” all have silent “b;”
Here are more examples of this silent “b.”

When you use a hammer and you hit your thumb,
You will scream in pain until your thumb goes numb.
After we’ve been conceived, we grow in a womb,
When our last breath leaves us, we’re laid in a tomb.

Try to stuff two fat guys through a tight doorjamb,
If they’re really stuck tight, they’ll bleat like a lamb.
TV broadcasts Donald, speaking with aplomb,
Of Iran and others, he intends to bomb.

Donald’s brain is buzzing like a honeycomb;
Critics prefer silence, like a catacomb.
Mussed by silent breezes, Trump could use a comb,
To hide the disturbance to the chief’s coxcomb.

Trump wants some news outlets rendered deaf and dumb. (2)
Three of them are feisty and will not succumb.
It’s a crazy letter: English silent “b.”
“Paradigm’s” as crazy; it has silent “g.”

(And don’t get me started on our silent “e.”)

(1) Trump has included a brief homily on this quirk of spelling in a few
campaign speeches.
(2) September 18, 2026, Trump announced that CNN, Politico, and MS NOW
would be barred from the White House because they broadcast “fake
news.” (Best translation: news Trump doesn’t like.)
