Peace Is Boring

After ending eight wars or causing the shooting to cease,
Donald Trump says he deserves a Nobel, at the very least.
But after killing Venezuelan boaters
And threatening Iran for killing protesters,
It’s clear that the commander-in-chief has gotten bored with peace.
First Amendment Phobia

To get on the wrong side of the government, you had to be a bomb-throwing anarchist,
That was until Trump and his Cabinet conspired to be Constitutional denialists.
They’d rather rendition citizens on illegal flights
Than perpetuate the spirit of the Bill of Rights,
Now, if you stand chanting in a protest line holding a sign, you’re a “domestic terrorist.”
A Little Nobel Palm Oil

Maria Corina Machado came to meet Trump, smiling like a bride,
She came to convince “Acting Presidente” to back her Venezuela side.
She slipped him her Nobel,
So the meeting went well,
Though Trump, Machado and you and me know it was just a stinking bribe.
