swamp creature

Scott Pruitt's asking donors to endow
a legal fund, accusing the Free Press
of overplaying what he's done, and how
he got the EPA into this mess.
The swamp just fulminates like some dire rash; 
to hide malfeasance, he makes more, and more.
Faux Public Servant, in it for the cash.
Armani suits bedeck a common whore.
In Oklahoma, no one gave a hoot;
one party holds all levers of the State.
Each bureaucrat sold license to pollute,
deriding Feds who'd dare to regulate.
Fond dreams of our Green future come to naught;
the regulator's office has been bought.

Potomac Swamp

Trump promised that he'd only "hire the best"
and laughed that some believe the crap he'll say.
Each Secretary's feathering his nest;
Scott Pruitt brought the swamp to EPA.
To run casinos, yet report a loss
Trump must have slept through ev'ry business class
A feckless haggler, and a useless boss;
It's foolish to do business with this ass.
No lessons taken from four bankruptcies;
he finds them less engrossing than his comb.
Mistaking shake-downs for high policy
the most corrupt--at least--since Teapot Dome.
Most losers (four times over!) would have quit
but Donald's most at home neck-deep in shit.
