So....
got anything you want to get off your chest...?
*smile*
I get it. I really do. I agree that everyone should shut up for five minutes and see what's happening. Thanks for sharing!

Comment from Teri7
This is a very interesting and well written poem about the political mess that's going on in the White House and all concerned. We need to pray earnestly for the President, Vice President and all of his workers. Blessings, teri

Comment from Cleo Belle
You have worked hard on this poem, and it shows. It is passionately saying what hundreds, if not thousands, are saying. I like the protest songs and songwriters, and anyone who raises their head above the parapet and complains. I thought the poem was cumbersome, but I applaud your clarity of thought.

Comment from Sharon Haiste
This is a well written poem with a strong and clear message.
The media with their bias tends to lead people's minds, in my opinion. We are told what to believe and not believe in some ways.
Well written and well told.

Comment from Katherine2
Integrity, and what is that to us now? That particular word stood out so prevalent to me as we as citizen of the US have had our integrity ripped from our being. This is a powerful piece of writing that hits to the core of what we ALL need to recognize as our lives being delt an extremely bad hand of cards. Apparently, some wagered the farm on Trump, now we all are paying.
I appreciate you for putting these truths out there. I find it difficult, as I deal with the public, to stifel my opinion when people speak in reverance to our president.
But alas, I must stay ethical.
I look so forward to reading more of your work.
Katherine

Thanks Katherine2, for your very kind and thoughtful review! it is sincerely appreciated. To be clear on my positions here, I find the constant attacks on President Trump to be simply intentionally harmful for the spite of democrats and their partners in the press and other media. Our people made the choice of Trump in contrast to a clear and proven criminal in Hillary Clinton. The crats now insist to destroy AMERICA in order to create blame upon him, at the cost of our people. This is the TRUE EVIL now facing our country.. I am a long-term personal friend of Trump and have had some very difficult and ugly business dealings and disputes with him in the past. and Although a tough negotiator he has yielded to me when the facts proved him wrong and I respect that greatly. I am very disappointed with his choice of waging war through TWEETS but do know he will choose any weapon necessary to stand for what's right. The achievements he has delivered for the GOOD of AMERICA SO FAR EXCEED ANYTHING THE CRATS CAN EVER COMPARE WITH IN ALL OF THEIR DAMAGES DONE THROUGH O'BUMMER ALONE. PEOPLE TODAY SIMPLY, MINDLESS STICK TO THEIR PARENTS AND FRIENDS LOYALTY TO DEMOCRATS WITHOUT ANY CONSIDERATION OF THE FACTS OF THEIR DESTRUCTION PAST , NOW AND FUTURE GUARANTEED. ! I HAVE ALWAYS ENJOYED AND RESPECTED YOUR WORKS AND CONTRIBUTIONS HERE ON FANSTORY AND ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO READING EVERYTHING YOU DO.! ALL THE BEST ALWAYS AND THANKS AGAIN FOR BEING OUT THERE!!

Comment from luther maddox
Heck yeah. You spoke the truth brother, we are in a downward spiral, and everytime the head of our nation gets caught with his foot in his mouth. It is always" he was just joking. Joking? People marching shouting racial chants and some of them were good? Are you kidding me? We cry about the Flag and the National Anthem, tell me, ask a few people do they know the words to it? I asked ten and only two new the entire song.

Comment from BeasPeas
You and I are of the same mind, Vance. Any attempt by Trump to get America back on track for the betterment of its people is met with obstinate political hacks who have made a lifetime job of getting re-elected over and over again. All politicians should be able to serve 2 terms and no more. Get fresh blood in there every couple of years and all this graft and feathering of their own nest would cease. Will they ever vote themselves 2 years and no more? Not on your life. It's the fox watching the chicken coop. Marilyn

Hi Marilyn, and thanks so much for this uplifting review...especially considering the rather dark nature of my writing ! I just cannot sit here and truly believe what my eyes and ears are bringing to my brain! It's so amazing that with all the grace and glory, the endlessly rich and magnificent gifts of life and gifts of enlightenment that life in THE USA has made available to our population, that we can actually stand back and look at the shameful and disgusting boneheads that want to stand up and deliver mindless anger, spite, and destruction to our political system and way of life! I simply cannot believe it!! Blessings always! Vance

Hi Vance. So true. I have traveled extensively. If ungrateful citizens could spend one day in some of the other countries around the world, perhaps they would understand better the gift they have in America and that they are throwing away the best thing they ever had with both hands. Marilyn
Comment from GracieAnn
I think there are many of us who would agree that the media is a platform used of Satan to kill and destroy the remaining goodness in America. The relentless dogging and made up fake news is unbelievable for those of us who know what liberty has cost us. Christians are the target of squelching god-less people. A sign of the times, for sure. Thank you for your boldness. :0 GracieAnn

Comment from poetwatch
I glad someone has thrown their hat into the ring. Not many people aspire to be recognized so they hide behind their shoes. No strides are made as they are left behind. A good political poem pointing out the wrongs in those leaders in office. They need a change, for the odors that assail the nose is of sulfur.
