Rereading what I wrote reminds me a bit of Lenin's famous words to Trotsky: "Comrade, the party has to spill some blood at times to grease the wheels of progress." Ugh!

The train’s pulling out of the station now Not everyone’s boarded the old cash cow The POTUS got left behind A sign of radical times ~ 'Wheels of progress' just ground him into chow

They say they’re on board, there’s no fuss..... They just let the old man loudly cuss...... Think no one will notice........................ It’s only the POTUS.............................. Thrown under a big yellow bus
