All Hail Saint Trump
Patron Saint of Situational Ethics
Yes, let's rush to canonize Saint Donald Trump,
after all, he's smarter than Forrest Gump,
for shortsighted partisans he's willing to stump,
and his detractors he'll always lump
as enemies of conservative values, for they're in a slump,
abandoned by leaders whose ethics are a dump.
But that doesn't matter, for the Right
has remembered its holy might
upon those that freedom causes fright,
because freedom's non-conformity
leads to moral laxity
from Man's basest instincts of depravity
and we can't have that, can we?
For freedom from persecution
is something our patriots
never fought and died for.
They never gave their lives
to permit us to worship
as we choose,
be we Catholic or Protestant,
Witness, Bah'ai, or Mormon,
Muslims or Jews.
But let's anoint this lying statesman
with holy chrism, buffing his puerile virtue,
so he shines an example
of doing as he says,
not as he does,
though I thought we were done
with those shenanigans
half a generation ago...
