It Is What It Is

“It is what it is”
I heard the President say
His facts only matter
we should see it his way

“We’re rounding the corner”
People aren’t really sick
Repeat alternate truths
until they firmly stick

If the Stock Market is high
then surely everyone’s Rich
If you don’t believe him
just ask his buddy Mitch

“The Election was rigged”
no way that Biden could win
To not agree with Donald
is an unpardonable sin

So off to the courts
His parade of lawyers in tow
pesky judges want real facts
but they’ve got none to show

So “It is what it is”
In January he must go
At least that’s what I’ve heard
From people in the know

The end of the story
or just the beginning 
Donald is not really losing 
America is finally winning!

Who knows what he is thinking of doing, perhaps he has a final act that he has egotistically prepared, a grand finale, excellent poem. Happy Christmas, Hugs, Jenny.

I know, right?! It is what it is. He must accept the results and move on. Brilliantly written... once again!

Thanks Cecilia. I think it must have offended more people than amused them based on the lack of comments.

I’m surprised these are the best two candidates that both parties were able to come up with.
