One Week

      Comments Off on One Week

It’s been…

One week since Joe solemnly
swore an oath to the best of his ability
Two weeks since the House agreed
to impeach Trump again for his seditious treachery
Three weeks since Pence had to flee
saying, “Get that mob outta here before they hang me”
Yesterday, you cried “unity”
But you can’t be forgiven without saying sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
The crazy groupthink
You’ll say I can’t believe QAnon
Could summon fools and racist tools who really think a Storm is coming that will somehow change who won the damn election

Hot like that poet when she bust rhymes
Big like those Trump crimes, and his mafioso values
Joe Biden’s got the mad grit
He’s seen some bad shit
He knows ’bout grief and how to pull through

Gonna need a break from all your fake
outrage and snowflake-y heartbreak
Because you lost, and now it’s your tears that I savor
Now Sue’s concerned and Josh got burned
And Mitch is bitching he got spurned
By Georgia voters who view treason with disfavor

How can I help it if a fair election makes you mad?
There’s no “steal” to be “stopped,” you just lost.
(Sad!)
I’m the kind of guy who usually backs “unity”
But understand, you attacked the damn country
I have a tendency to see sedition as a peeve
So go to prison in your stupid Q shirt

It’s been…
One week since a cold Bernie
Heralded the beginning of a new presidency
Three weeks since Steve Kornacki
Showed us maps of blue Georgia, a glorious Dem victory
Twelve weeks since November 3
When Trump said “I won” with Goebbels-esque mendacity
Yesterday, you cried “unity”
But you can’t be forgiven without saying sorry

Chickety-China, the “China Virus”
Cannonballin’ in like it’s Miley Cyrus
Gathering indoors with no mask on
Now COVID’s passed on
Your dumbass drove R-naught up past 1

Like NYC, SoCal’s getting frantic
Death toll’s gigantic
And these new variants are disquieting
Like seriously, we need to masks
But you won’t wear masks
You’d rather super-spread while rioting

Gotta threaten Dems with angry mobs
Riled up by Hannity and Dobbs
To sate Trump’s ego, always lying to the right-wing
“We got more votes,
I know we did,
Cuz we had boats
And a boom boat parade, yeah
Is practically the same thing”

How can I help it if Black people voting makes you sad?
Throwing out Philly votes is fucked up, Chad
I’m the kind of guy who tries to see good faith
But Josh Hawley is practically a Ringwraith
I have a tendency to care about the Republic
That fascist MAGA bastards tried to subvert

It’s been…
One week since Trump left D.C.
A fucking loser whose shame will live in infamy
Three weeks since I looked at Q and said,
“You just did just what I thought you were gonna do”
Four weeks since, on New Year’s Eve,
We hoped to leave this shit behind in 2020
You say you want unity
I say renounce your lies, convict, and say sorry

(Spineless G.O.P. assholes will never say sorry)
(U.S. politics sucks now, I need a new hobby)
(Mar-a-Lago in Florida, home of the blobby)
