They all gathered at the Tower,
They faked their cheers for about an hour;
A king in his castle,
on the very first day,
All of the actors,
He would pay;
He declared he will replace Barack.
This made him a laughing stock;
The Billionaire Beginner took the nation by storm,
His beliefs and ideals have elephants torn.
Banners and signs say Make America Great,
Throw out Obama, Indict Secretary of State;
He learned as he’d go and during the primary,
He’d make pacts and proclamations that often were scary;
Build a wall we will,
Mexico shall pay,
Is this the new,
American way;
Big Business don’t go,
or you’ll go on trial,
Don’t forget about Muslims,
Ban them for awhile;
The things he says are all over the place,
Carly Fiorina,
Who would vote for that face;
The reality star shone bright in debates,
Igniting the silent majority of states;
He beat out a senator,
calling him Little Marco,
He outran Kasich,
The Governor of Ohio;
He beat out Christy, 
But they became friends,
Will Christy be VP,
I guess that all depends;
The only man to give him a run,
A man he calls Lyin’ Ted,
The senator returned to Texas, 
He now represents the red;
My vote went to Rubio,
 but I am not bitter,
Part of me likes him,
When he’s not on twitter;
GOP becomes a mess and still some aren’t buyin’,
Though some decide to jump on board,
After gaining support from Ryan;
The blue donkeys this year are an abomination,
One is even under investigation;
42nd First Lady,
Please tell us the truth,
You put us in danger,
They even have proof;
Bernie o’ Bernie,
Such a simple man,
He’ll give you free everything,
It’s on Uncle Sam;
He tried his best,
To sway Bern’s fans,
Some said no,
Some joined the man;
His manner is changing,
Still not politically correct,
the second amend,
he will protect;
We see him in our homes on O’Reilly Factor,
His face on magazines,
 Much like an actor;
Strengthen our military and ISIS we’ll defeat,
Support our veterans and protect our police;
Strengthen our economy and decrease our debt,
We’ll know in November,
The date’s been set;
This pivotal time in our beloved nation,
This vote requires much consideration;
Orlando, Dallas, Black Lives Matter,
As we sit and watch our society shatter,
Donald J. Trump is the red candidate,
 and who gets my vote on that autumn date,
I want to make America Great,
I will not vote for a Secretary of State. UNSUPPORTED CODE
