OK, here is the answer.
Many = poly + Titian[^]
rule together
Politician.
I tried to go for a more obvious Titian painting, but those with two names didnt work in the sentence.

Uh, his name was Tiziano.

If I wrote the clue in Italian that might matter.

Trump couldn't pronounce that, so now it is Titian.
... such stuff as dreams are made on

I'm surprised that Trump would give up the "ano", given his sex life.

He went for "tit" instead

He does indeed look like an "upfront" man person individual.

Well the spellings are both wrong, and no indication in the clue that they were soundexes.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, you have to leave something up to the imagination.

Most people stick to the accepted conventions of compiling clues.
|
|
|
|
|
Is there such a thing? I never do CCC so I wouldnt know.
Still, most people seemed to like the last clue.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, anyone who regularly does crosswords will understand them.

Do another one that is simple enough for me to answer eg very, very, very, very, very simple and I will answer it.

Yep!
I liked the 'penny' 'nickel' association, gave it a sense of verse.
|
|
|
|
|
Spending a penny is an Anglicism for using the toilet.

That bit I guessed, is the answer OK to post in the Lounge?
|
|
|
|

Of course.

Some of you were pretty worried when I told you I quit my job before finding a new one.
Well, good news! I got a new job and I'm starting in two weeks
Better salary, better car, better study opportunities and a whole lot more of commute...
The commute is a thing, but I'm just going to see how it goes.
With so much more learning opportunities I'm willing to sit that one out for now.
Wish me luck
|
|
|
|
|
Yay!
Pity about the commute: they are a life killer. How long is is going to take? And how much longer than that in mid winter?

There is no winter in Holland.
I am endeavoring, ma'am, to construct a mnemonic memory circuit using stone knives and bearskins.

A friend who cycled to work in Masstrict from Eijsden had -20 C one morning.
It does winter rather well Holland!
