Impeachable Boss Tweet

Impeachable Boss Tweet
Impeachable Boss Tweet

in the swamp, downstream 

not far from the White

Supreme Court and Capitalist Hill,

Boss Tweet sings in the 

War House’s Offal Office

“Impeach me—

my weak, impeachable DEMS—

Impeach me—

Nancys, Stenys, Chucks and Jims…

Just one charge from you

brings out the bipartisan in ME—

That ol’ ‘save the system at all

cost’ and deal-artisan in WE!

I’ve profited from the many, many

Wars waged with YOU—

Sanctions, regime change, stock in

OUR monthly coup…

Don’t be a ratty partner—

Work with Boss Tweet— 

work with me, you fools

Let’s keep making the

Law by breaking the

Law and rewriting the rules…”

*Inspired by the great Ira Gershwin’s “Embraceable You”
