looking forward

Paul Ryan shows scant sign that he's afraid
serenely sure the Russians have his back
the mid-terms--in his book--are bought and paid
unless Bob Mueller were to prove the hack
Let voters squawk! He does not feel their pain
defying Bannon's orders would take balls
the Devil owns his soul, and worldly gains
are worth the curses chanted at Townhalls
still, Democrats can't seem to mobilize
not being Trump was never quite enough
and annotating all his many lies
can't sell the Clinton platform built on fluff
until Progressives stir the working class
Joe Sixpack sits this round out on his ass
