Can He Debate

Controversy can be engaging But it’s just a smoke screen For something permeating He inundates debates with insults and condescension But can we hear the issues with diplomacy and thoughts That are transparent and comprehending Many are called but few are chosen He’s a ticking bomb, hurt his feelings And there’s an explosion I stand with those who are knowledgeable and sane Not one who promotes games and is deranged Yeah, yeah, yeah Build a wall and keep “them” out He’s building walls now to protect those with clout Wake up everybody and read between the lines Our votes will determine if we progress or decline His agenda is NOT yours or mine.

I've been telling people this pretty much since the beginning. Our political system is so screwed up right now. The republicans are so weak they can't keep the sociopathic outsider out, and the democratic party is so corrupted that they will put in whoever they want, the people's will be damned. What a total joke...it would be funny if it didn't bear such serious consequences.

Thank you The Grahamburglar for your perspective. Politics in general are about power and how they use that power expresses their morals, sense of unity or immorality and disconnection
