Nice Try!

Mr. Trump, for many years

We've watched you disregard the rules.

But tell us: what do you take us for--

A groveling, ignorant bunch of fools?

 

Making an early campaign announcement

For you, of course, is apropos,

And surely it is a way for you

To rake in tons and tons of dough.

 

You love the spotlight. Yes, you do.

But, frankly, that should give you pause,

For don't you realize that what

The spotlight does is point out your flaws?

 

Because of your lies, the nonsense you spout,

And your general lack of humility,

People see you less as a help

And more as a threat or liability.

 

We know that you have always carried

A hey!-it's-all-about-ME card,

But running for president doesn't give you

A get-out-of-jail-FREE card.

 

Investigations will still go on

Despite your bold but feeble attempt

To skirt the laws from which no one--

Not even YOU--should be exempt.

 

You and your cohorts, such as Bannon,

Will take your donors for a ride.

All we can say is, "Nice try, Trump.

Good luck finding a place to hide."

I don't know Bob. I believe people don't want to see the truth. Any man who don't want to show their tax records. Had did something wrong. We can't stop the IRS. This election didn't excite my souls either in November. 50% of each party. House and Senate. Another two years of useless leaders, not helping the people. Yes, the contractors. Anyhow. I did enjoy your thoughts. I voted.
