The Simplest of Thank-You's

Can I thank you in passing for helping 'me' for easing 'my way' into the Presidency ******* Bush Jr. might have thanked Clinton for an economy that produced a budget surplus, amazingly But he focused on his own alleged decency deriding his predecessor's public immorality Mr. Obama didn't thank Mr. Bush for his fight against terror instead castigating George W. for his economic errors And Mr Trump declined to give Mr. Obama his due for steady job growth, a comeback in stock prices too Now Mr. Biden touts his own 'magnificent job' on vaccinations ignoring Mr. Trump's Operation Warp Speed, the true causation ******* The elites lecture us: We have to be more civil, more polite When the simplest of thank-you's they can't even get right
