Are you surprised,

A man who’s father owned a black ghetto,

Is a president who can’t concede and just let go?

Are you surprised,

A man who boasts about the women he’s took to bed,

Is accused by them of abuse and dread?

Are you surprised,

A man who says whatever he wants he can get,

Is over 400 Million dollars in debt?

Are you surprised,

A man who built an empire on nothing but his name,

Could offer nothing but crime and shame?

Are you surprised,

A man who told you exactly what kind of man he was,

Could sow nothing but chaos and discourse in all of us?

Are you surprised,

A salesman, who tells nothing but promises and lies,

Could dodge questions of whos, whats, wheres, and whys?

Are you surprised,

A man with the slogan “Make America Great Again”,

Could cause nothing but tormoil, madness, and pain?

Are you surprised,

A man so apathetic he talks about “on both sides”,

Could watch and laugh as his own country divides?

Are you surprised,

A man with friends and children in such low places,

Could be a deceptive cretin with many different faces?

Are you surprised,

A man who entertains murderers, racists, and nazis,

Could be involved in criminal and fascist posses?

Are you surprised,

A man with who mocks the innocent and good,

Refuses to do what he as president should?

Are you surprised,

A man who uses religion and privilege as a cloak,

Would let his own country go up in smoke?

Are you surprised,

A man who’s philosophy is “I’ve got mine”.

Could think thousands of deaths is just fine?

If you are,

There’s a question for you I must try,

If you are surprised, I must ask, Why?
