lady liberty is very distressed
the donald devil has made such a mess
doing a deal here doing a deal there
closing borders while combing over his hair
celebrating independence holiday
turkey laden table with fine food array
the donald sits with his family and raises a glass
we're doing fine folks so they can all kiss my arse
my new best mates are comrade kim and uncle vlad
so c'mon now peeps things can't be that bad
we're bigger and better than everyone else
i came along in time the country is blessed
i am the president so what can go wrong
everyone's safe we've got millions of bombs

ReplyDeleteLady Liberty is distressed indeed! Even monsters are better than him.
ReplyDeleteHow apt! He has single handedly ruined the spirit of Lady Liberty. Well crafted and a super pic!
ReplyDeleteOh I am so sad that this is the damned truth. I love the photo. That is how all of us who have hearts feel, all this terrible year.
ReplyDeleteRallentanda, as a Canadian, who lives in the Great Lake basin, just 90 minute boat ride south to Rochester, New York, there's a lot to be worried about. Each day it get worse, with Trump opening his Twitter account or his mouth to spout out.
ReplyDeleteSigh.
The whole country prospers when there is peace, not when there is conflict and wars, however only a few will will prosper when there is conflict and war the rest have to pay by losing their money their homes and their lives.
