Wrong on EVERY Front

"Show me a SINGLE sensible solution..."

By Chris ZPublished 5 months ago • Updated 5 months ago • 1 min read
"Another inbred git / champing at the bit / Takes a war hawk’s hardline / against Iran or Palestine."

From ‘Trickle-Down,’

to ACA,

from W-M-Ds,

to climate change...

From same-sex marriage

to denying evolution;

from a single-payer option,

to state-sanctioned execution:

Show me a single

sensible solution

ever put forth by

the party of exclusion.

A fix fit to serve the common man

non-profit and nonpartisan;

free from social class dilution;

user-friendly in execution.

Trump’s administrations

mirror Make-A-Wish foundations;

debasing standards,

razing expectations,

for wealthy, well-connected cis

Conservative Caucasians.

Draft dodgers, incels,

election deniers,

traitors, bribe-takers,

pathological liars;

Epstein’s Files reigniting fires!

Pederasts and their desires,

their ‘Diversity, Equity,

and Inclusion’ hires.

From Barry Sotelo

to horse dewormer,

to the en masse firing

of air traffic controllers...

From tax cuts for the 1%

to stimulus checks

that hypertrophy the debt;

From the Hilary Clinton

missing server fiction

to the ‘stand down’ order

we know was never given;

Keystone Conservatives

never could pin the tail

on their half-pint female

grey-haired great white whale...
