Will Boss Tweet run for exercise at Lompoc or Leavenworth?

                                                                                             Will Boss Tweet run for

                                                                                 exercise at Lompoc or Leavenworth?

 

Gift of slavery goes on giving and giving… Gerrymandered,

alligator-armed, fake Führer leaning on the lectern like an

Electoral College countenanced unmasked Mussolini…

Aided/abetted by Fox-box foot soldiers—Boss Tweet— The

Great Prevaricator’s Making Amerikkka Grate… Again…

‘Controlled burn’ of decaying capitalism: Crimson-slippery

Capitalist Hill steps—6 dead; hundreds injured by confederate

cops/nazi soldiers/moonlighting thugs not satisfying a glutinous

Grifter’s thirst for blood…

From lethal huckster/red nose, big shoe shows—

AKA ‘press conferences…’ Lie a minute machine

Running, running, running like some faulty toilet.

Running, running, running like some Super Bowl

team running to win… milking the clock down…

Killing tens of thousands—Maybe millions—in that

Game

Everything about the Fox-box avatar—the hollow, un

hinged hero rings false. Still… he’s

running…Again…

Never mind the Negro news personality crowing

about Boss Tweet appearing “Presidential”—

Bombing hand-to-mouth, everyday people.

Here lies the dilemma of “our democracy!”

If war criminal capers/murderous monkey business of Boss Tweet appeared:

“Presidential”

What about Ol’ Schmo? The Drone Ranger? W? Slick

Willy? What about a repenting peanut farmer at

death’s door?

Betcha Boss Tweet never runs for

Exercise at Lompoc or Leavenworth… Wet, cold,Wiki

leak, anyone? The Framers had Mumia in mind…And

time-traveled for Leonard Peltier—And bound-gagged

Bobby Seale! Never war criminals building

McMansions on book deals…Never…
