Presidents and Nonsense

Oh, how I'd love to see
 a little more action in this presidency.
All I hear is talk and lie evoked
 while on the important things there is no vote.
Obama's gone, just let it go
 Trump and Ryan, McConnel and such
are such a travesty entitled bunch.

What they say and what they do
 are nothing for me and you,
Corporate taxes and the rich endure
 while Daca and budget remain insecure;
Stop the blame, the fool hearty rhetoric
 and get to work , set sights away from comic spite
and keeping America from being the world joke.

I find it really hard to believe he still holds power, he's a liability, not only to the USA but to civilisation! As Jonathan said, "You tell 'em, DM"!
