Created Realities...

“It’s just two people from China; then it will be 15, then 15 will magically go to zero.”
“Anyone who wants a test can get a test.”
“We’ll have a vaccine in a few months.”
“This will all disappear by April with the heat...by July...by October?”

Reality is a moving target,
For a reality tv actor
Playing a billionaire on The Apprentice,

NBC had to rent furniture
Because the decor in New York City’s
Leaning Tower of Pisa

Was itself a health hazard!
Noel Casler, stand up comedian
Worked as showrunner for the series

And goes at him full force
On the source of his influence: Twitter,
To which, the Russian asset replies in utter silence,

“Tell ‘em what happened when you had to read the word ‘Arbitrage’ off of a cue-card on ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ Donnie...ok, I will. Trump flew into a rage that we were ‘setting him up’ and soiled his Depends in front of the crew then stormed offset to snort Adderall.

“This story is true btw, and a big part of why Burnett won’t let you ever see ‘Apprentice’ tapes. Trump’s tongue would do that weird sticking out thing a lot too, often ruining takes. He was a mess and still is. @realDonaldTrump.”

Donald J Trump is a created public fiction,
More “created reality” than Karl Rove’s
Flirtations with the Project for a New American Century,

Instead of Pax Americana, we’ve exported PTSD,
He should be tried for crimes against humanity,
And his enabling sycophants with him,

The GOP is a collection of
Racists, sexists, homophobes, xenophobes
Ghouls, and alt-wrong Nazis

A criminal enterprise
Masquerading as a political party,
Complicit in his stupidity

And him trying to gaslight a pandemic!
Finally, wearing a mask to Walter Reed’s clinic
As his re-election chances look spent

Perhaps his trolls will ape it and help flatten the curve?
But, we KNOW we’re one lousy headline
From a policy swerve

Back to the Russian dragon of divisiveness
He rode to power,
Mismanaging the planet in this hour into this colossal mess!

To avoid a self-imposed sixth extinction event,
Checking voter registration is time well spent
So we, the SANE, can gleefully FLUSH this turd and his mob of enablers November 3rd!
