Abrupt

Excuse me if I appear to be abrupt

but I find your sensibilities and ethics corrupt,

a leader of people should be a visionary

scrupulously clean and who speaks with brevity,

not a person who seeks solely to divide

to make it easier to control all of the sides,

the manipulate and create forms of xenophobic hate

I see your actions as no more than a disgrace,

discriminating based around sexuality of race

in this world there should be no place,

for this kind of leadership to transcend into a modern age.

You nailed he-who-shall-not-be-named. Greatly too. Thank you from the masses. And me.
