More Lies

When Trump took office, Sean Spicer,

Press Secretary, expressed

Negative feelings about low figures

For unemployment and further stressed

 

That such statistics were meaningless.

The important thing is jobs, he said.

Apparently, he was implying

That we have often been misled.

 

New figures have just come out

Regarding the unemployment rate,

Which is 4.7 percent.

The White House NOW thinks that's great!

 

Suddenly, figures and numbers

Have meaning, though they didn't before.

Isn't it odd how credibility

Doesn't matter anymore?

 

The White House has no faith at all

In what the CBO° has to say

Regarding repercussions of

The Republican "fix" for the ACA.°°

 

White House figures will be more accurate,

Spicer insists, which implies

That we are going to be bombarded

With more alternative facts and lies.
