The king of cover-up is at it again, Downplaying financial ties And close connections with other countries, Especially when questions arise. First it was with Putin and Russia. How much collusion remains to be seen. Conspiracy in election meddling? Whitewashing is now routine. And then there was the hush-money To cover-up some hanky-panky. Dissimulation's easy when You've got money in the banky. It looks as though you must deny And try to hide actions you rue, But calling your fling "horse face," is that A gentlemanly thing to do? Now the cover-up deals with the Saudis-- With the crown prince and the Saudi king. Denial…admittance…rogue players… It has such a familiar ring. After bragging over and over About the millions of dollars he's made From wealthy Saudis, his words are now Exploding like a hand grenade. When the leader has conflicts of interest, Critics, pundits, and others who know Where his interests really lie, Shrug and say, "We told you so!" He says he has a "natural instinct For science." Isn't THAT a joke! I wish his "natural instinct" was for Telling the truth whenever he spoke. -by Bob B (10-18-18)
