Delivering poetic justice during the Trump years.

Anyone who lives somewhere not fit for human beings,
Logically must then be thought as something less than human.
How can that be racist? I don’t see what you are seeing.
Join in my defense here – we can squeeze another few in.

I launched an attack on Democrat Elijah Cummings,
Making claims his district’s poorly run and very filthy.
Also, I suggested he’s corrupt – he *may* have done things.
While awaiting proof of innocence, I’ll call him guilty.

On the heels of picking on the Squad, my latest target:
One more person with a skin tone less than alabaster.
I deny that I embody racism incarnate:
Mueller and Pelosi (they’re both white) – also disasters.

Everything I say somebody’s going to find offensive:
That’s what Mick Mulvaney said while trying to defend me.
That approach makes criticism easy to dispense with;
I’ll strike back at anyone who ventures to condemn me.

You can be a racist without putting on a white hood:
Pair an evil action with another that’s unequal.
Just like Charlottesville – there, people on both sides were quite good.
Blur the lines and obfuscate the issues, this technique will.

If it isn’t clear by now, then let me spell it out here:
Strategy for 2020 based on racial tension.
I’m just getting started; key words: infestation, doubt, fear –
Vote for me and you’re endorsing hatred, by extension.
