As part of Trump’s penchant for busting through norms,
Those mini traditions that lubricate life,
His new violations are causing a storm
Of real consternation, political strife
The laws and traditions of our institutions
Trump blithely destroys in pursuit of his aims:
To profit illegally from his position
And those in the Justice Department defame
Pres. Trump had demanded regarding this guy,
Informant on Russia’s contacts with Trump’s people,
An investigation by his FBI
Trump’s claims of conspiracy, untrue and feeble
The norm is that President’s don’t interfere
With investigations that Justice performs
But Mueller’s activities fill Trump with fear
When Trump is demanding, to Hell with the norms
Tomorrow’s the meeting to meet Trump’s demands
For info on who Trump has labeled a spy
To then be released to Republican hands
Intent on discrediting the FBI
But I think they’ll all come away empty handed
Since Rosenstein’s clever and won’t violate
The norms of his office. He’ll give as demanded
Though valid, the data will nothing relate
