The Grand Deception

For years Trump has wanted us

All to believe that he is the great

Businessman par excellence,

When actually, he's second-rate.

 

By lying and cheating his way to the top,

He fooled many. But let's not forget

That Trump's successful empire was

A fiction created by Mark Burnett.°

 

Trump's REAL empire is

A castle built on shifting sand.

For many years he has relied

On fraud to help promote his brand.

 

"Fraud" is such an ugly word,

But maybe for Trump it's really not.

To him it seems that all is fair--

Just as long as you don't get caught.

 

As he gaslights Americans,

It's hard to know what he really believes.

The hypocrite cannot escape

The fantasies to which he cleaves.

 

How sad it is that he has led

Americans down the rabbit hole!

How can they trust someone who couldn't

Tell the truth to save his soul?
