worst of all possible systems

an angry nation took Trump at his word
they loved his rants against the Donor Class
'though pundits pointed out that it's absurd
to look for change from such a TrustFund ass
what spews instead is xenophobic bile
against the workers who produce "his" goods
as if the aspiration's somehow vile
to raise their children in good neighborhoods
substantive issues get swept to the side
she pitched a NoFly zone to show she's strong
while Donald's shoring up his frail male pride
there's no adult to point out why she's wrong
democracy's a quilt of compromise
no thread of which is perfect in all eyes
