The New President

A Poem by Bob B

We will have a new president,

And no, it won't be Donald Trump.

Actually, it's Elon Musk--

Trump's newest sidekick-chump.

It's Elon Musk--the money man,

And one for whom Trump has the hots--

Who will be the one in charge.

Musk will now be calling the shots.

When you're the richest man on Earth,

You can do whatever you want.

Flash your money at Trump and you'll

Be his newest confidant.

The richest man on Earth can also

Use his money to threaten those

Who do not do his bidding or who,

Instead of ayes, will give him noes.

Interestingly, Elon Musk

Wasn't even born in the States

And legally couldn't run for office.

What kind of nonsense now awaits?

Privatization is his goal.

Social programs are under attack.

If he and his cronies get their way,

Consider how far they'll set us back.

Now that Musk is in Trump's ear,

Trump will be the titular head,

But President Musk without a doubt

Will be running the show instead.

Musk has wormed his way to the top;

The consequences could be huge.

I wonder how long their friendship will last

And which one of them is the other one's stooge.

Bernie Sanders spoke on this topic a day or two ago, it's worth a look if you haven't already. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79KDKWEOJ1s

I think we are about to see just how petty two extremely powerful adult man children suffering from severe NPD can be. In 6 months Elund and Donny will probably be enemies. Hopefully it doesn't cost us too much in the mean time... we don't have that much cultural credibility left these days. A large part of America is turning into a kind of dark circus of perpetual grievance and willful ignorance.
