Trump and fellow Republicans
Are spreading lies to get their way
And not funding programs that help
Americans who are struggling today.
They blame the Democrats for shutting
The government down and hope they'll cave.
Republicans, by cutting programs,
Are only digging a giant grave.
One of the programs in jeopardy
Is assistance that we call SNAP.°
By doing away with it, they widen
America's economic gap.
SNAP puts food on tables and helps
Smaller businesses survive.
Once again, as people suffer,
More million- and billionaires thrive.
To add insult to injury,
Government websites are spreading lies
And violating the Hatch Act,°°
Which happens to come as no surprise.
Trump's major concern right now
Is building a ballroom while people are hurting.
To end the shutdown, we can see
The zero effort that he's exerting.
And why are we sending billions of dollars
To bail out Argentina, while here
Many people are suffering?
Oh, well, the answer is clear:
Trump thinks only about himself,
And his priorities are skewed.
As long as he can make a deal,
He doesn't care if people get screwed.
