The outcome gets more predictable,
Apart from crimes indictable.
What totally boggles the mind
Is Trumpy’s knack to self-malign.
As crypto goes from bad to worse,
The Donald hunts suckers to coerce;
The trading cards, scurrilous grifting,
Are election-killing shapeshifting.
Deflated into mock super-hero –
Cartoon astronaut and vaquero,
A stumble beyond “over the top”
Yet how revealing this instant flop.
Even Bannon can’t take any more,
Aghast at Donald the dinosaur;
Unsettled as chronic lawbreaker,
Self-mocked loser, carnival barker.
Goodbye to Bannon’s champion
Reduced to desperate ruffian;
Here’s no figure of revolution,
Only bitter tasting disillusion.
With each empty play of ego,
Dumbfounded fans feel vertigo;
Here’s the failed insurrectionist
On display, unhinged delusionist.
There’s no bottom to the infamy,
No coupe de grace to misery;
What new, despicable broadside
Ignites further campaign suicide?
At last Trump’s gift to the GOP,
Fouling his own electability;
What spineless Repubs find detestable—
Trump provides, now less electable.
Worse than funding a criminal—
Is empowering this imbecile,
Unmitigated, tin ear yahoo,
Mouthing a cock-a-doodle-do.
Lightyears past standards of fitness,
Who denies Trumpism a sickness?
As cataclysm plays force majeure,
The majority cheers “nevermore.”
