Who say DOGE-sim make Amerikkka grate? Who?

Who fog horn the racist sheriffs? Who?
Who do the most Mussolini moves? Who
Wedge the marked cards in his hooves? Who?
Who still calling for more, more oil and coal?
Who stripped the Kennedy Center of its soul?
Who make the most phone calls for remote
Control? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who?
