Freedom of the Press

 

We’re calling on the State militias: round up the illegals
That was the drafted order circulated ’round the Press
Their calls for confirmation by the White House met refusals
Then Spicer claimed their news was false, so causing much distress

It has become a pattern, forced-to-fail, each Press release
When publishing these stories, Spicer claims them as not true
Trump tweeting that the media are the people’s enemies
A campaign aimed to denigrate reporting factual news

Trump’s goal is to diminish public trust in published news
So when disturbing facts relating to his Russian ties
Are published by the New York Times and in the channel views
The public won’t believe them, calling them a pack of lies

Not if, but when that happens, Donald, you’ll scream loud and clear
“Fake news, a ruse; don’t pay attention!. They are all untrue!”
But freedom of the Press is what Americans hold dear
And it will be your downfall, Don, there’s nothing you can do
