A poem of facts

The wall he promised to keep out crime

Stands partially complete

Financed on America's dime

It's a symbol of defeat

Promised change is not in sight

Jobless rate's rise higher

Politicians maintain a constant fight

The West explodes in fire

Young and old get sick, some die

He says COVID is just the flu

Our chance to contain it passed us by

The vaccine is witches' brew

Children are slipping through the cracks

Nights are filled with protests

The climate crisis is at a climax

Suicide's increased from stress

Iran expanded their weapons of war

Trade with China is a nightmare 

While tariffs increase and soar

The Whitehouse doesn't seem to care

Love letters came from Rocketman 

Trump believes Putin's every word

There is no peace in Afghanistan

Trump's logic is absurd

Hilary is free; the emails were found

The swamp's became a quagmire 

Investigations daily abound 

Our POTUS is a liar

Enhanced health tests

Louder protest

Bullet proof vests

Racial unrest

Increasing arrests

Food requests

Child molests

Patriots detests

I am not impressed

American was great before his election

Now the bog consists of rage and treason

It's time for Trump's ejection
