Our Hundred Days

 

The President bemoans his hundred days
By bragging on the many things his done
‘Though lack of legislation he has won
Is not among his current boasting ways

But there are things that Trump has done to date
He’s opened land in Monuments for oil
Allowed coal miners to pollute the soil
And cancelled climate regs I must relate

We’re at the brink of War because of him
The injudicious rhetoric he’s said
Could slay Koreans by the thousands dead
One hundred days of damage by Trump’s whim

In these first hundred days the ones who’ve won
Are grass-roots activists. That’s you, that’s me
We’ve marched, we’ve demonstrated; we’re the key
That stopped Trump’s bills from being voted on

We visited our Reps in their home towns
Demanded “do you job!” At their town halls
And flooded all their phones with all our calls
It made a difference. All Trump’s bills went down

So I salute us, each and every one
We are the winners on this Hundredth Day
But don’t stop here, there’s so much more at play
In fact our work has really just begun
