misappropriation

Trump's cronies take their flights high on the hog,
in love with perquisites that come with rank.
The tone's set by their spendthrift demagogue;
our public coffer's just their piggy-bank.
Inspectors General work overtime
accounting for each new extravagance.
Each military flight might be a crime,
but no one dares call "bullshit" on Mike Pence.
Incessantly, Trump's cabinet posts churn;
the Senate confirmations never end.
We'll each be Secretaries in our turn!
Their ethics, only Conway could defend.

The scandals that would sink another ship
bespeak the iceberg; we've just glimpsed the tip.
