The Baby

What do we do in America 
with a spoiled, howling baby,
who throws tantrums...
demands its own way?
We elect it President.
 
Then we sit back,
watch it destroy its toy
and threaten us with
loss of our government
being taken away in pique
 
We know of the naughty
things it has done, but we
look the other way
We repeat, "But he IS the president..."
Yes, he is - but SHOULD he be?
 
We are held hostage by a
Tyrant, a dangerous child in a
man's body who will bring 
down the precious nation of ours.

Fear not... We will outlast him, as we do all such fools and misfits … Season's greetings, Gershon
