Robert Mueller, Now You’ve Done It
Robert Mueller what have you done?
You have released a wealthy (allegedly) con man (allegedly)
Whose children and seemingly guilty cohorts close to him
skated free from accountability and indictment
There are others who could have provided proof
Like Stone, Jared Kushner and his wife, Ivanka
But our vaunted truth warrior quietly logged out, tail between his legs,
Leaving with only cursory questioning of interested parties to collusion
The Republican cadres of this administration tout they are exonerated
By a Republican Special Counsel of a fake Republican president
That is not the truth of the “no collusion” decision made
Investigations continue and no one knows the final outcome
My kingdom for an honest Republican
Is there one available in this country?
Was there ever a Republican who had a conscience
And not a stick to and support your own kind mentality?
Mueller being a Republican gives us great pause today
We, the American citizens, put great trust in him
We were told he had impeccable credentials and integrity
But we weren’t privy to his mind and loyalties
And we know that weak minds make up Republicans
Like lemmings they follow the teat of the orange chubby man
Does anyone really trust Republicans?
Many of us never will but Republican representatives could help themselves
By losing the yellow streak down their backs to protect their country
But who knows when or if they will ever lose their moral turpitude
They made such a fuss about Hillary’s e-mails but the Trump kids are doing the same
The brightest lights in the White House they are not
And Jared reading classified material without a security clearance
Until Daddy Trump got him one despite his advisors advice; bad move!
With all the criminal investigations pointing to ‘collusion’ with Russia
Self-importance and arrogance being this gang’s most obvious bent
Using the United States as their playground, America as their checkbook,
And the world a place to enhance their bank accounts even if they collude with the enemy
Like Cohen warned, the hothead is not going away easily or quietly
He will prove to be the most unruly, impetuous and stubborn
72 year old child ever to rule in the White House
Can anyone imagine the chaos when he has to leave?
What a fake scandal he will inflict on the nation
And we know he doesn’t care
When he forces a violent takeover of our country,
His true colors will stain our flag forever
There will have to be an understanding
He is the boss and it’s his way or the highway
Congress will follow his commands,
He will practice his kind of Democracy his way
No questions, no opposition only do what he says
If not, there will be hell to pay
He doesn’t like dissension only compliance
Those that get along will be nicely rewarded
The others who resist will be dealt with harshly
There may also be a thinning of the herd
among the Democratic Congress
One must keep in mind that this guy in the White House
Considers himself a Mafia Boss and as boss and president
He is above the law and can do what he wants, when he wants
The game he plays is a rich man’s game
He and his ilk are lifetime members and no one else is allowed
The rest of us are not invited
This is a whites only party
America, take note, whoever wins this fight
Will rule the roost from now until who knows when
We may have our first dictator stirring in our midst
Are you ready for the beginning of the new 4th Reich?
Me, I’m going to Canada.
