Disastrous Picks

Trump's picks for his Cabinet

Are in-your-face kinds of picks.

It's obvious from what he's doing

That he is up to his old tricks.

 

He doesn't want the FBI

To be involved in the nominees' vetting,

Which Democrats and conscientious

Republicans find very upsetting.

 

For Secretary of Defense,

Pete Hegseth, a veteran who

Displays as part of his body art

A white supremacist tattoo?

 

Tulsi Gabbard as DNI°

Who couldn't pass a background check

Because she's compromised by Russia?

Trump's feelings: What the heck?

 

Matt Gaetz as Attorney General--

A grifter and a trouble-maker

Accused of sex-trafficking?

For Trump that's NOT a deal breaker.

 

Hegseth, Gabbard, and Gaetz are all

Deeply unfit for such positions.

A competent president wouldn't

Select them under any conditions.

 

It’s almost as if in making his choices

Trump is trying to deride

All of us by asking himself,

"Who is the most unqualified?"

 

Will Republicans cave in

To pressure from Trump or show some spine

And tell him no when he attempts

To sidestep rules and cross the line?
