We need a leader
whose words inspire us,
Not one who tries to
cover up facts
In dealing with the
spread of a virus.
Coronavirus (COVID
19)
Around the globe is
quickly spreading.
If we--the
public--remain uninformed,
Into what dark abyss
are we heading?
At first the
president seemed less concerned
About our
welfare--our protection--
And more concerned
about how the matter
Affects his chances
of reelection.
Downplaying the
words of the experts,
He doesn't want the
markets to panic.
If we aren't told
the truth, however,
The consequences
could be titanic.
Censoring the
information
From health
officials isn't wise.
We will be subjected
to more
Of the Trump
administration's lies.
For Mike Pence to
lead the response
Doesn't make any
sense at all.
When dealing with a
health crisis
In Indiana, he
dropped the ball.
Governmental
agencies
Created to deal with
crises as such,
Have been hollowed
out by Trump,
Who has the reverse
Midas touch.
The
head of the HHS:° guess who.
A former lobbyist!
Oh, yes.
And for big pharma.
Watch him make
The crisis into a
bigger mess.
Trump must be the
protagonist
In every drama,
someone has said.
While he blathers,
how many people
Will die from having
been misled?
A leader needs certain qualities
To fight all kinds
of vicious attacks:
Honesty and
competence--
Two important things
ours lacks.
