inexorable

Paul Manafort's conviction seems ordained
September finds him in the dock, alone
the swagger, while he plundered the Ukraine
is fled, now he's a weak spot of his own.
Rick Gates demurred to take his boss' fall;
it's not his neck extended for the ax.
Once Mueller's made one breach in this stonewall
the competition's on to cough up facts.
If Papadopoulos has files to bring
that justify the leniency he got
we've found the levers to make Mike Flynn sing
no honor binds the underlings Trump bought.
The slimiest swamp creature whom Trump hired
may be the one who gets the whole lot fired.
