Trump's Really Quite a Stinker

Trump's Really Quite a Stinker

Trump's really quite a stinker
Says what comes to mind
Media bites hook line and sinker
Has them kissing his behind

His statements so outrageous
They have to put him down
His attitude contagious
To the citizens around

Doesn't have to spend his money
To keep his name out in the news
I really think it's funny
How politicians sing the blues

They smell they're losing power 
Trump has opened up the lid
Now they're spending every hour
To get him for what he did

They say he doesn't know a thing
About being president
Yet they have done so little
For which to government were sent

Big money has put them there
They don't live reality
About us they don't really care
They control us don't you see

To make this country great again
The Donald has a point
But I believe his greatest sin
Is throwing noses out of joint

The people have a want and need
To get more than has been done
The politicians make us bleed
If there's a loser, we're the one

I know that Donald's scary
But I'm so glad he's had his say
Now we all must thrust and parry
To make this nonsense go away

I don't mind at all. I wrote it as food for thought. The more who see it, the more who can think about it.
