Impeached
Historic? Yes! Expected? Yes, our sense
Trump’s phone call, when revealed
About three months ago
Was obviously so
A crooked Donald deal
Left little in suspense
Just two impeachment articles were drawn
Both articles were ‘yea’ with margins wide
Votes cast on Party lines
Defections were quite few
Pres. power Trump abused
Obstructed oversight
Nor laws did he abide
Trump loudly claims that he did nothing wrong
The Senate next convicts him or acquits
McConnell wants a sham
A trial that is unfair
Of precedent no care
And witnesses be damned
A trial that won’t convict
But Nancy still wields power very strong
She can withhold the formal House results
From Senators until
McConnell guarantees
The trial will fairness be
With witnesses who will
Be under oath sans faults
A full-blown trial whose outcome’s not fore gone

“When Atticus says, “This case is as simple as black and white,” he is referring to the racial aspect of the case, as well as Tom’s obvious innocence (Lee 124). … Atticus realizes that he is defending Tom in front of a prejudiced jury and that the lack of evidence has no bearing on the outcome of the trial.” From To Kill a Mockingbird
Interesting comment. Thanks, Josh
I agree.
