Notes About The Poem

Whether you like Donald Trump, or not, he has put Washington and the Federal Government back in the people's spotlight again. We need that. The people need to be involved. We are supposed to be the government.

Dump On Trump

Dump on Trump
By Franklin Price
2/5/2017

Dump on Trump that's what to do,
for close-minded it's nothing new.
He's making good on his campaign.
The people voted, Trump was named.

No politician is the Trump.
He's there to get us o'er the hump
Steps on toes to get it done.
To make us great, he is the one

Opposition on the hill
don't like him much, they never will.
Things he does will make them work,
get off their asses, he's a jerk.

All they've done is take up space.
That's why they lost the top most race.
Easy  to say that Trump is wrong,
from do-nothings that don't belong.

For many years they've locked the grid.
When things got tough, they've run and hid
Now have Trump to lead the way
There is no place to hide today.

To have conflict is who we are.
How do you think we've come this far?
Change is coming, that is clear;
now that Donald Trump is here.
