#strongman
-the global strongman, and how to survive him "Our leader is a good man, he knows what is right." He needs no wicked science, all he needs is strong believers.      They don't like competence, they hate discretion.      Cast down your glance for their eager eyes. "Ang aming mga lider ay isang mabuting tao, alam niya kung ano ang tama." He is an ardent lover of justice, killing criminal vermin at all cost.      They want to bring you down, my friend,      they like us unlike them. "Wǒmen de lǐngdǎo shì yīgè hǎorén, tā zhīdào shénme shì duì de." He needs no shrewd lawyers, he senses who is guilty.      By hunger and chaos they make you foul your mouth,      our hate and cursing will set us all apart. "Nash lider - khoroshiy chelovek, on znayet, chto pravil'no." Now don't get naughty, you know, just behave.      Raise your head, man, raise your feeble voice:      let's sing our songs, let's come together. "Liderimiz iyi bir insandır, doğru olanı biliyor." He's towering above all of us, he'll crush the faintest uprising upfront.      Heureux qui comme Ulysse a fait un beau voyage      - et puis est retourne plein d'usage et raison.      Fortunate the guy who fared well on his travels      - and returned, a man of the world, full of wisdom. "Our leader is a good man, he knows what is right."

This price for peace
So they hacked some computers. "No big deal" you may say, "Since their influence steered things toward the right way" "They just didn't respect us, that's why the attack. So I place all the blame on the Dems and Barack" "So we'll get nice and cozy, Vladimir and me, since there is just so much upon which we agree" "We want to be strongmen who'll shape history and we're both such examples of virility" "And we'll handle the media through fear and attack to ensure truth and balance shall never come back" "Admiration and power is what we adore, it's the one greatest cause that we truly live for" So, Mr. Trump... When you're there in the Oval and Europe's alarmed 'cause in Prague and in Warsaw. the Russians, well armed, have crossed o'er the borders and come to reclaim their former domininons, then who will you blame? So why this great bromance? What's your motivation? Why would you align with Vlad and his nation? Could it be business ties? Or maybe high debt? Or maybe dark secrets you wish they'd forget? I do not want to think that it could be such things but the Russians sure look like they're pulling your strings.

Vladimir
I take a pause to write these words,    to say what's on my mind; To tell you 'bout a man I know    with strength so near divine. He's quite amazing in each way,    a beacon on life's shore; He stands alone no matter what,    his goal, to serve my Lord! He follows close when God commands    for him to do his part; In everything he does his best,    in life, He's left his mark. I'm blessed to not just know this man,    he raised me from a lad; You see, he's so much more to me,    my father, friend, and dad! He raised me right to know the way,    to God, the narrow path; He prayed those times I ran so hard    for God to spare His wrath! I pray some way I've made him proud,    when time on earth is done; I write these words to tell him now:    "I'm PROUD to be your son!" Then when time comes, the roll is called,    the saints all gathered 'round; I'll stand SO proud to see my Dad    receive each one his crowns!
