Have you seen Trump’s storm troops in Portland city?
Have you seen them tear-gassing peaceful protestors?
In camouflage combat fatigues with no name tags
And armed to the teeth, gear for riot suppression
Provoking a riot and marchers arresting
Good citizens who have the right to protest
Trump says it is his responsibility
To quell lawlessness in the cities
Have you seen infections have now reached four million?
Have you seen one hundred and fifty K dead?
The corona virus infecting the nation
Is out of control, clearly no end in sight
With each state enforcing what it thinks is right
Some guided by politics following Trump
Ignoring their experts, now that’s really dumb
Trump says that he bears no responsibility
It’s up to the States and the cities
I find it intriguing that Trump has the gall:
To send in his troops, local protests unheeded
While eschewing leadership desperately needed,
To bolster his chances to win in the Fall
