Trump’s deliberate misperceptions are intended for his base
Since, of late, his popularity polled close to record lows
It means he’s losing base support, that’s hard for Trump to face
He’s got to turn the polls around; deception’s all he knows
Jim Comey’s testimony gave the perfect opportunity
For Trump to claim exoneration from the Russian cloud
That at that time, as Comey said, he wasn’t under scrutiny
That put the whole investigation seriously in doubt
Trump knows he is fallacious when he says the probe is fake
He knows that Comey’s statements just applied to what was then
He also knows his Presidency is ultimately at stake
He knows the truth must be concealed from all we citizens
Now Trump is under probe for him obstructing probes on Flynn
But Trump claims this is foolish, clearly that he’d been obstructing
Investigations that are moot, the verdict had come in
This is his ploy, the probes go on despite Trump’s obfuscating
