The Man With the Axe
Many call me The Man with the Axe
But I'm not a violent man
I am the ruler (though some challenge the facts)
of a minor, yet important, clan.
I am not a sailor at sea on a ship,
yet a deck is where I can be found.
People say I am a girl's best friend,
but not when my Queen is around!
I am usually seen on a Bicycle's front,
but I can neither peddle nor steer.
I become even stronger if I am named Trump.
Have I made my identity clear?
