Once again, millions of us
Took to the streets, undeterred
By threats and intimidation from Trump
Who didn't want our voices heard.
Violent insurrectionists
And thugs and terrorists in the extreme--
That's what we are to Donald Trump
And to his fawning admin team.
According to them, we are Marxists
Who hate the country. It's a game
That they are playing to dupe the people,
And it is a real shame.
We weren't invading the Capitol,
Attacking cops and storming the halls,
Yelling threats and racist slogans,
And defecating on the walls.
We protested peacefully.
It's NOT the country that we hate--
We hate the growing autocracy
That Trump and his sycophants celebrate.
We want to preserve the rule of law
And keep the freedoms to which we cling.
We want checks and balances
And NOT to be run by an insecure king.
Trump dislikes it when we say
We're anti-fascist. I wonder why.
Could it be because it hits
Too close to home? My, oh, my!
