World leaders met and Trump, Who lives in various wonderlands, Also had a meeting with Putin And played right into the dictator's hands. Trump admires Putin--a man Who bullies targets to do his bidding. If Trump's not aware that he's being played, The neophyte has to be kidding. A man who loves to undermine Democracy and put down dissent, Create chaos in the world And pull the strings of our president, Maintain control of a criminal state Where greed, graft, and corruption hold sway, And jail or **** opponents doesn't Even deserve the time of day. Yes, we know that power corrupts And absolute power, absolutely. Its hideous effect on a free people Is something we're aware of acutely. Does Trump just love the idea that Putin Controls the country, controls the press, Surrounds himself with loyalists, And governs the people with fear and duress? Not a pretty picture, of course. Concerned Americans very much fear That Putin-like threats to democracy Are showing their ugly faces here. - by Bob B (7-9-17)

Who Is Playing Whom?
