My war in Iran’s going great!
Ev’ry option I’ve chosen’s first rate.
But the “fake news” is claiming
The opposite, blaming
My acts for the glitch with the Strait.
They are trying to make me lose face,
And it’s THEIR fault I’m losing my base.
But I’ll get them back soon,
And they’ll sing a new tune…
Cuz my pal Brendan Carr’s on the case.
Donald loves to abuse friendly nations,
Hurling insults, demanding prostrations.
Now he’s stunned they won’t aid
With the Hormuz blockade…
How dare they rebuff his dictations!
Many Trump true-believers feel peeved
And inflamed and betrayed and aggrieved.
Seems he fibbed when he swore
On the stump, “No new war!”…
Oh, good grief, those naïfs were deceived!
