Second time as farce II

His lawyer might seek Use-Immunity
to testify to what he'd helped Trump do.
Without the candor or acuity,
John Dean's reprised as Cohen's shyster Jew.
Like magic waters of the river Styx,
he'll immunize himself against reproach.
The echoes of Dick Nixon's DirtyTricks
that had been tragic, this time play as jokes.
The precedent is rarely quite precise,
the fair-haired boy now bears the mohel's mark.
Another roll of history's grim dice,
if this be farce, it's getting mighty dark.
Confronted with Trump's record of HighCrime,
we'll settle for mere Pence. And it's high time.
