The Proof's In the Pudding of the Last Two Lines

Trump's another Hitler
            Mike Pence, a racist
          America's a slave plantation
            Accusations, the basest

          Shootings and murders are rising
            So let's defund the police
          Since jails breed hardened criminals
            Let's call for instant release

          Big corporations are all evil
            Their wealth, confiscate
          'Redistribute it fairly' --
            Will Congress take the bait?

          False analogies make us wince
            Illogical demands do too
          Woke-sters run the government
            And they're coming after you

Our country/government is so screwed up! You captured that well in your poem, Gershon! Blessings, Kim M

Actually, Milt, I think that even Biden's too afraid that she'd b/c President to croak early. I mean it. He sees that he picked a real first-class dud there. I can just imagine what Putin, Xi, Kim, and the Mullahs would unleash against her. This Hamas episode in Israel, which, please understand, was blessed by Putin the day before it was unleashed, is just a preview of what we would see world-wide. C'mon Joe! You gotta make it to 82! :) gw

I'm not going to comment any further, Gershon, but I think you'd better get prepared!

I'd give Biden a screwdriver, but I'm afraid he might screw himself, and then we'd have Harris. OMG, no! lol. Peace, Gershon

You know, G.W., I'm seeing this word "woke" and now "Woke-sters." What do they mean? Hey, I'm old and I need to keep up! You've pretty much hit the nail on the head, I think.

Okay, I got it. When they get up to "J" I'll start holding my breath...or move to another country. Any suggestions?
