ambition

Paul Ryan's scoping out his next campaign.
Too long, ambition has been chafing, pent
-up, wasted in the service of plain Jane
-sville. Donors want him to be president.
For such a leap, he'll find no precedence;
House Speaker's plainly after the VP.
Bob Mueller'd have to take out Trump and Pence
before succession fell to number three.
But lately, Trumps been stoking up that dream
discarding allies crucial to this fight
unable to consolidate a team
his instinct's to divide, not to unite.
The nation's sickened by this latest turn
when all we really wanted was the Bern.
