Two Peas in a Pod

We hear that Trump enjoys keeping

In touch with his bosom buddy,

Vladimir Putin; in fact, he could be

Putin's understudy.

 

Their commonalities are clear--

These two peas in a pod.

Cut from the same piece of cloth,

Both pretend to be God.

 

Both of them disdain opponents;

Both want total control;

Both of them are leading the people

Down a rabbit hole.

 

Putin will find a way to jail

Whomever he sees as a threat.

He's had a few of his critics killed;

Trump hasn't--at least not yet.

 

Birds of a feather flock together;

So the saying goes.

When it comes to gaslighting,

Putin and Trump are pros.

 

No one's surprised why Trump is for

Cutting off aid to Ukraine,

For HE knows very well that its

Loss is Putin's gain.

Why Putin meddles in our elections

Is obvious, for he

Wants his pal in the White House again--

Yes, his fellow pea.

 

Both of them have taken the art

Of lying to greater heights.

Both of them are not averse

To trampling on our rights.

 

Russia is stuck with Putin until

The tyrant meets his end.

But we have the choice at the ballot box

To stop Putin's friend.
