If you like this and believe it has merit, please try to get it to as many people as possible, through any method you have available to you. The media, congress, and We the People, need to cooperate with the president, and help the United States of America get through these trying times; even if its only for this one time. Those who choose,can get back to your one person hatred later. Pointing Fingers By Franklin Price 03/22/2020 Pointing fingers going viral, as coronavirus grows Pointing to the president, on Sunday morning shows The virus not expected, was never seen before China's where it started, it's knocking now at every door The world has gotten smaller, the transportation's great China kept on traveling, and did not shut its gate Did not talk about it, at least not right away That's the finger pointing reason, we're where we are today Covid moving to all people, race and country matters not Seems wherever China went, Covid added to the pot The world's contending with it, humans passing it along To blame it on the president, is so much more than wrong Was no protection for it, all the viral experts say The media's in agreement, yet Trump let it come our way They say he is a know it all, should have seen it way ahead Thousands now infected, and hundreds more are dead He should have seen it coming, had the testing all at hand Had the vaccinations ready, before it spread thoughout the land Should have closed our borders sooner, and sent all the workers home Now the virus has its hold on us, from Key West up to Nome. In the process of this happening, Trump made the market bust Was forced to call the pros in, some whom the news may trust Put his buddy Pence in charge, to proceed to win the bout Is transparent to the people, as they try to work things out Some newsmen saying good things, though there's a way to go Yet dwell on what he says, not does, as he goes on with the show They know he's not political, doesn't kiss a single ass To say just what he's thinking, shows he doesn't have much class Covid-19 not political, at least it should not be The whole world now is waging war, with an illness we can't see Instead of pointing fingers, in hopes of voting Donald out Be the journalists, you are not now, and help this nation out Report on where the roads are blocked, find out what must be done Pretend he is your president, for he surely is the one Show him respect, and he may too, I know you're thinking maybe not The impeachment did not work at all, so he's the only one we've got
