GOP CREATED A VERY STRANGE FRUIT

DubbleDhee



GOP created a very strange fruit

Mogul based out of New York. Plenty of loot

 

Exploited sweat shop labor down to their knees

Claimed to create new jobs, but sent them all overseas

 

Conjured up memories of the Antebellum South

Has no filter to speak of, a most insulting mouth

 

Tells certain people everything they want to hear

But tells another segment they’ll be gone in a year

 

Poor Muslims are stuck, can’t do anything to please

He’ll ship them out in a heartbeat, before they can sneeze

 

Needs Latinos to get elected, but he can’t seem to cope

Accuses them of being criminals, selling nothing but dope

 

He insulted grown women. And it wasn’t very cute

Almost drew blood as he spoke, clear down to the root

 

Only wanted runway models. Loved them close to six feet

One wife was cut from his team. Told to take a back seat

 

Stole all the good fruit, showed the masses utter disdain

Drove the poor from their homes using eminent domain

 

He smiled the whole time as they stood in the rain

Told them to work harder, their loss was his gain

 

Gave money to Democrats, it seems he wasn’t that picky

When you only care about money, relationships get tricky

 

Went from one party to the next, always turning the wheels

He wanted to make a quick buck. That’s the Art of the Deal

 

Business is about the quick and the dead. It’s about who you know

Burning bridges is not a good thing. You reap what you sow

 

Politics is a different animal, takes finesse to get your way

He didn’t figure that out, our man will have some bad days

 

No one took him seriously. Looked like he was cursed

But he out-flanked the competition. Went from worst to first

 

Now the GOP is scared. They have to deal with their flop

The fruit is spoiled and stinking. Has begun to rot

 

Hoped to wait out Obama. Get a new start - clean and fresh

What popped up in their garden, smells like burning flesh

 

And it’s not like Hillary offers all the best pickin's

She carries heavy baggage, and she’s not a spring chicken

 

Latest stories suggest his party has buyer’s remorse

They are looking for a way out. Steering way off course

 

Some GOP leaders want to replace him at the convention

Using all kinds of tactics, some way too awful to mention

 

Tea Party’s quite angry, they are beginning to pout

Fury complete with bulging eyes and a twisted mouth

 

How could they be fooled by such a fresh rookie

Didn’t check under the hood. Didn’t take a close lookie

 

This is an odd fruit. The kind vultures won’t even pluck

It was raised on bald hatred. So the yield really sucks

 

Donors see him with open eyes, so the money has stopped

He’s the candidate hate created. A very strange and bitter crop

    Thanks for commenting abstract! I was going to use "Tea Party" instead of "GOP" at first. I didn't realize it would have that kind of affect, but you never know, huh? Trump is one of my favorite political targets so I seem to have no problem writing about him. His antics make it so easy for me. LOL. Thanks again!
