If A Democrat Did It

The reaction would not be the same

If a Democrat used hate

Republicans would not wait

To call them out

Or start to scout

Someone to help them

find ways to condemn

If a Democrat ignored the court

Republicans would not stop short

Of finding a way to remove

The Official and Improve

How things are run

And claim they did it for their son

If a Democrat claimed a friend

Knew the voting machines, it would be the end

Repubicans and Democrats alike

Would work to find a way to strike

The leaders path

And everyone would do the math

But when it's a Republican

Democrats shrug and say "sure, you can."
