taken for granted

for Hillary, all power flows top-down
and Debbie can deliver a swing-state
denying power to that fascist clown
no compromise of ethics seems too great
the DNC bet on the weaker horse
'cause donors disapproved of Bernie's views
without a PAC to multiply his force
he shakes out pushkes from Progressive Jews
the senator from WallStreet tops the bill
and scolds the peasants to get on the bus
but no one here's convinced that Clinton will
risk irritating donors to serve us
now she and Trump compete to stoke up fear
and I wake screaming; it could happen here
