Poem 98: Reckoning

It’s just a joke there’s no way he will win

That is the way this story would begin

Experienced lawmakers laughing at him everyday

While Donald flung insults at them along the way

This whole thing is hilarious he hasn’t a chance

But steadily in the polls he continued to advance

Graham and Cruz were also opponents in this race

They both fought back at him and called him a disgrace

The war of insults would finally abate

When Trump was eventually chosen as the Republican candidate

So Donald was now in the driver’s seat

Experts still laughed and said he would end up in defeat

He continued with his name calling during his campaign

“Crooked Hillary” would become his favourite refrain

Rallies are what he lived for throughout his run

He loved the adoration, could say anything and for him it was fun

These were no holds barred sessions and did what he wanted to do

This man would spew out anything and very seldom was it true

Still all the polls showed that he would fall

Yet come November, he won it all

The so called experts didn’t get it right

Donald Trump ended up winning this fight

So what happened to Lindsey Graham and Lyin’ Ted?

They both cowered to this man instead

Mitch McConnell joined the duo to make it three

This is how the party shaped up and how it would be

They enabled their new leader and just put him out there

As long as they achieved their goals they really didn’t care

They backed him up and kissed his ass all the way

Were never deterred on what he did or had to say

Trump continued his rallies shortly after the race

He thrived on all the adoration, it was his happy space

His bigotry and hatred would seem to increase every year

His party was in denial but to the world it was perfectly clear

This man continued his prejudice and refused to stop

He cleared out the streets of Washington for his own photo-op

During the “Black Lives Matter” protest is when he did this deed

Still yet the Republicans endorsed him and did not impede

He brought out the National Guard to enforce his law

The rest of his party chose to ignore what they saw

His “White Supremist” antics were now on full display

His loyal group still backed him all the way

Now a few months later and “The Party of Trump” is starting to squirm

Their heroic leader has failed to win his second term

He’s claiming the election was rigged and refuses to abide

Over one hundred and fourty members have stood by his side

The three stooges, Mitch, Lindsey and Lyin’ Ted

Backed up their leader and let them go ahead

Sixty cases lost and laughed out of every court

Larry, Moe and Curly show him their support

January sixth was chosen to certify the election and get it out of the way

Trump and his supporters had a “Save America Rally” scheduled on the same day

Don Junior, Rudy and the President fired them up with their so called hoax

Then sent them to the Capitol and there was no need to coax

Trump vowed he would join them but of course he never did

These instigators went back to the White House and that’s where they hid

This mob broke into the buildings and put up quite a fight

Trump didn’t call the National Guard because his friends are white

Five people have died as a result from this riot

Trump made a few statements but has been really quiet

There are plans to punish the demagogue and I wish them the best

Somehow I think however, they will fail in their quest

For Mitch, Lindsey and Ted, it was a terrible fright

As a result of being scared stiff they all now see the light

They have condemned the President for the actions he took

I don’t think these three idiots are off the hook

Lindsey ran into Trump’s posse when he left for his plane

The way that they heckled him could drive him insane

These three men could possibly have a target on their head

Choosing to ignore all what Trump stood for they’ll learn to dread

The rest of your lives you will all have to watch your backs

Not know when or if this group will choose to attack

Now Donald, if you don’t get sentenced for all of your crimes

These people who backed you will turn on you in time

Once they get to the realization that you used them and took their money too

There won’t be enough bodyguards to protect you and you know that’s true

So go back to Mar-a-lago when you once felt safe and sound

Not knowing what day on the course could be your final round
