We the People have an enemy
But it isn’t who you think:
It is not the Liberal Printers
with their paper and their ink.
It is not protestors in the street
Who wear pink p*ssy hats-
No, the enemy of the People
is not as obvious as that.
The enemy of the people
is no social media link.
He’s not some homeless vagabond
adorned with tattoo ink.
He is the oaf who took an oath
To Preserve ,Protect, Defend
The very basic liberties
He would subvert and suspend.
So if you seek the enemy
You vain and pompous ***
You will very likely find him
In a West Wing looking glass

A series of Presidential executives from Bush the younger to Trump have created the apparatus of a police state that is incompatible with personal liberty. While the poem addresses the current occupant of the White House i believe the road to tyranny has been a process.
