Under Attack!

Under Attack!

A Poem by Bob B

"It's an attack--an attack on our country,"

The president said. "It's a disgrace."

It's still amazing how he can say

The things he does and keep a straight face.

 

The Mueller probe's an attack on our country?

An attack on all we stand for? Say what?

Maybe if Trump had been honest and forthright

He wouldn't find himself in a rut.

 

What DO we stand for? Rule of law,

Search warrants, magistrates…

Where no one's above the law, not even

The president of the United States.

 

The president's idols--Putin, Duterte,

And Erdoğan--would never permit

Investigations into their own acts.

To strongmen it would NOT be legit.

 

To Trump a legal pursuit to find

Answers is a ruthless attack.

Yet Russia assaults our democratic

System, and Putin's a crackerjack!

 

Poor Trump just doesn't get it.

Whenever he talks, he more or less

Rubs salt in his very own wounds

And finds himself in a bigger mess.
