He didn’t win,
“So they say”
What constitutes a win
Anyway?
She got 60 percent of the vote
But then hey
I think he sued her
Just yesterday

How can she win
If he won’t concede?
She’ll be sworn in anyway
I hope he takes heed
Declaring victory
Doesn’t make him a victor
And the Supreme Court
Won’t be his interdictor

Election lying is
The new paradigm
Republicans use
Who commit that crime
Though it hasn’t worked
None of the  time
Yet that doesn’t stop ‘em
From hitting rewind

See they don’t believe
In the ballot box
Nor do they believe
In bagels and lox
And you can’t engage them
In rational talks
They’re more inclined
To do what shocks
