You Can'T Take Away My Freedom of Speech-Not For Contest

You throngs of foolish Americans, why could you not see
what motivates Trump and overlook the faults of Hillary?
You were blinded by his lies and the blatant mockery
that he made of 200 years of this country's Democracy.

Trump may have won the Presidency but America loses.
When his backers feel the pain from his inflicted bruises
it'll be too late to cry and whimper over their lame excuses
for electing a chump who absuses his power as he chooses.

In the White House he'll blast new rules on his trumpet...
"If a woman is alive and breathing, go ahead and hump it.
But if she's old and ugly you have my permission to dump it.
Grope women and treat them like they are all strumpets."

Now we have a bimbo as the first lady, Milania, we must call.
Those two in Washington will cause America's downfall.
He speaks of creating new jobs and promises to build a wall
but Trump is the serpent in Eden. On his belly he will crawl.

My comments may not please you, but I still have the right
to speak freely of my convictions, just  as any of you might.
It was another moment of infamy, that dark election night
when America empowered a man who will never be contrite.

If you think the bickering is over and all is said and done,
don't be fooled by complacency. Trump is ready for some fun.
He'll smirk because he is a jerk and a lying son-of-a-      gun.
I wonder now if he'll scowl and claim "It's rigged, but I still won."

I love this, Marti. Thanks for being so brave to post this. I fear for my life in case he becomes the next HItler and searches out our posts on the internet. hahaha. (maybe won'T be a joke after all. Gotta wait and see on that one). He truly is a huge joke and already people are buying into him. Can you believe 35% of Latino men voted him? Maybe the thought of a female in charge more unbearable than their friends being deported?. Lotsa women voted for him too! It boggles my mind.

A very bold write, Marti:) I appreciate your frankness:) I believe God is on The Throne, and sometimes He allows such things to happen, we may not understand it now...it's just a reminder that more prayers are needed in these last days:)
