252 days under the trump regime

just 50 votes needed
and it still didn’t pass
he can still take healthcare
from the middle class

stop the funding
maybe no one will notice
I’m guessing that’s next
from this heartless potus

he must have a win
no matter the cost
if the ACA thrives
in his mind he’s lost

against their own interests
his supporters still cheer
after all of the lies
they still think he’s sincere

peaceful protests
during the national anthem
THAT’S NOT ALLOWED!
he yelled in a tantrum

which matters more
black lives or a song?
choose the former
he will say you are wrong

he gets his followers
to believe what’s not true
EXACTLY how Hitler
started with Jews

label them falsely
and say it LOUD
appeal to the base
stir up the crowd

he vilifies muslims
while defending the klan
history is clear
on religious bans

the worst of our country
has been given free reign
what we stand for now
fills me with shame

“the persecuted whites
they must be protected!”
intelligence & decency
so clearly rejected

the swamp has been drained
into cabinet positions
motives for policy
should be met with suspicion

he will revamp the code
who should pay the most tax?
these decisions now made
by Goldman Sachs

this reality show
may cause our destruction
be it nuclear war
or unchecked corruption

it’s because of the media
like the New York Times
that we know about any
of the Russian linked crimes

secret meetings by the dozen
denied ’til reported
“I have no business with Russia!”
since trump tower Moscow was aborted?

I hope Mueller hurries
how long can we wait?
the damage he’s doing
is sealing our fate

turns out that it’s fragile
our short lived democracy
will it soon be
a christian theocracy?

I want to yell
I want to scream
do you understand what he’s doing?
Do you know what it means???

if Obama did it
it must be undone
when all is destroyed
that’s when he’s won
