And now it’s been one year and during that span,
Instead of sowing presidential unity,
Division has been his stand.
Our courts saw religious prejudice
In Trump’s “Muslim Travel Ban”,
And then “Repeal and Replace” didn’t take place,
No Paris Climate Accord we couldn’t afford
For what reasons I’m stumped; ask Donald Trump.

The “Unite the Right” rally August 2017
In Charlottesville, VA turned a violent scene
To maintain a statue of Robert E. Lee
Resulting in 38 injuries and death count three;
White Supremacists, Neo-Nazis, and more
Swastikas, racist banners, and Trump/Pence signs bore –
Our president was slow to deplore.
We were hoping for more!!

NFL players kneeling with hearts inequality feeling,
May we all work together to fix that wrong,
But none should disrespect our nation’s flag or song.
And to our hot-headed president:
These are not “SOB’s” but Americans wronged;
Let’s join together in heart, hand, and song
And let our freedoms ring!!
Together, let our freedoms ring!!

Is it to gain the upper negotiating hand
Via intimidation, blasts, and derogatory slams
We hear “My button is bigger than your button”
Or possibly “Mine is bigger than yours”
To “Little Rocket Man”?
What do we make of “a real nut case”,
“lost his mind”, “Pocahontas”, or “Kenyan born”
When he gets in your face
And dishes up scorn?
They feed raw meat it seems
To boys raised in Queens,
Some boys raised in Queens!!

The stock market in 2017 has been a happy story,
And more than one political faction would like to claim that glory.
Tax Reform 2017 “rocket fuel to the economy” should be
If corporate management doesn’t just pocket the change
But rather in exchange
Reinvests and redevelops whole-heartedly
In superior, smart American workforce job opportunities
That render products competitive and yet of superior quality
That consider the entire material life cycle with optimum efficiency
And planet responsibility,
So that when the American-made name brand goes on,
It is a symbol of reliability and customer service world renown.
To that goal and gaining,
I hope to corporate management our president is campaigning –
Not just for tax reform, that’s all,
But rather rebirth from within,
The best ever manufacturing America,
Service sector, et al!!

“I have determined that it is time…”, on 12/6/2017 our president spoke,
“to officially recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel”.  No joke!!
This was not at all humorous to the Arab world
And for them one less negotiating piece
To bargain with in a two-state search for peace.
“It is time for the many who desire peace
To expel the extremists from their midst”
This is of greater importance to peace;
That is the gist!!
