A Growing Kleptocracy

The rich get richer as costs keep rising.

It's clear what's happening here:

Power, control, grift and greed

Rule the MAGAsphere.

 

The U.S.-backed plans of peace

For Russia and Ukraine,

Focus heavily on major

Business leaders' gain.

 

Those who benefit--and this

Should come as no surprise--

Are business leaders who maintain

Close White House ties.

 

Ruling elites are using government

Institutions to steal

Public assets to fill their pockets.

Always out for a deal!

 

The leader, of course, making billions,

Covers for his cronies,

And takes on the role of kleptocracy's

Master of ceremonies.

 

Scores of billionaires on Trump's

Donor lists have now

Been appointed to offices.

The password here: kowtow.

 

Family Trump is using its

Position to haul in the loot--

Advancing its own interests as it

Enriches itself to boot.

 

In the meantime, Donald Trump

Is spending a lot of time

Pardoning cronies who have been

Convicted of white-collar crime.

 

It's clear that Trump and his unscrupulous

Friends are running amuck,

NOT trying to do what's right

But trying to make a buck.

 

NO accountability!

That's what they desire

As they ignore us everyday folks

And plot, plan, and conspire.

 

Trump's campaign: to drain the swamp.

That is how he billed it.

Has he drained the swamp? Hell no!

The liar instead has filled it!
