100 days and what success do we see?
Only to his pocketbook, with branding for free.
100 days and we assess the damages.
Yes, we will need the Mother Of All Bandages.
100 days of bluster, and brazen lies,
With a dozen or two links with Russian spies.
100 days under Putin’s thumb,
You knew this line would end with “dumb”.
100 days of unconstitutional orders,
And a white man’s fantasy of walled-off borders.
100 days, another diplomatic gaffe,
Unable to shake a hand, or fill out a staff.
100 days and no repeal and replace,
Not even a vote to save his face.
100 days and just as well,
A rambling tweet he’s sure to misspell.
100 days , modeled from Andrew Jackson,
Without a hint of a congressional action.
100 days? It feels like 100 years.
We must fight to thwart a new trail of tears.
