March of the Hypocrites

Oh, those hypocrites! How they love

To blast others for the things they've done!

They will fool a lot of their supporters,

But do they think that they'll fool everyone?

 

In June, Trump was bragging at a rally

Of troop withdrawal from Afghanistan

And how that once he set the deal in motion,

That there was nothing that would halt his plan.

 

He also told his fans that once the U.S.

Plan to pull out all our troops had started,

That the Afghan government would fall

As soon as U.S. troops had all departed.

 

Special immigrant visas were to be

Issued to our allies over there

So they could flee the country to be safe

For having helped us. Such a deal seems fair.

 

But actions often counter people's words.

Later, reliable sources would reveal

That Stephen Miller with his racist blather

Did his best to undermine the deal.

 

He and Trump are now feigning outrage.

But what would people otherwise expect

When someone such as Miller--who's a White

Nationalist--and Trump intersect?

 

A congressman from Florida, Bill Posey,

NOW says that we should have done much more

To help people leave the Afghan nation,

Which is turning out to be a chore.

 

But wait! When Congress voted on a bill

To assist in making the visa process flow

And also to increase the number of visas,

Posey voted adamantly no!

 

And so they want to throw all the blame

At Joe Biden, who was left a mess

When back in January he took office

And had this giant problem to address.

 

The March of the Hypocrites continues.

Certainly, more will join their ranks.

They'll keep throwing rocks from their glass houses,

Deceiving others while expecting thanks.
