COVID-19: Doubling Down (5/28/20)

His lies defy all comprehension
Cause deliberate misapprehension
He is renowned
For doubling down
Press should not give him attention
 
Once it was birther nonsense
Vote fraud his latest pretense
He is renowned
For doubling down
All voters should now take offense
 
Baseless he accuses Joe
Of murder a long time ago
This conspiracy theory
Should make us all weary
But for Trump this is so apropos
 
He’s stamped with the Tweet Fact Check label
For tweets that are not fact, but fable
But he is renowned
For doubling down
His mental health just isn’t stable
 
His tweets are not just misleading
But so far old Trump is succeeding
In spreading foul lies
So, it would be wise
For everyone just to stop reading
 
The “fact check” label signals “lies”
Ignore Trump tweets I would advise
Twitter should delete
All such Trump tweets
His sh*t they should not normalize
 
In response he now tweets on twitter
He threatens that very same twitter
“I’ll close you down”
Says this crazy clown
The irony couldn’t be fitter
 
We all know that Trump is devoid
Of empathy, and he does avoid
Enraging his base
So in this case
He remains nearly silent on Floyd
 
It’s time for us to take a stand
Of Twitter we all should demand
that his boldfaced lies
that terrorize
from Twitter now should all be banned
 
The reporter was asking a question
Trump registered an objection
“Remove your mask,”
old Trump did ask
not caring about his protection
 
His grip on reality fades
His mountain of lies now cascades
If he cannot hear,
it would appear
it’s time to get some hearing aids
 
He has found one use, you’d agree
For the N95 PPE
It’s up to task
To be used to mask
The truth of his presidency
