Suckers and Losers

If you served in the military,

I hope you don't expect to receive

Praise and respect from Donald Trump--

For some, I know it's hard to believe--

 

If your plane's shot down by your foe

And you become a prisoner of war,

Or if you die on the field of battle.

If so, to Trump, you'll be a bore.

 

President Bone Spur much prefers

Soldiers who--and this is his thought--

Come home intact from having served

And those, of course, who never got caught.

 

Visiting a cemetery

To pay respects--to honor the dead--

Is senseless to him, for such a place

Is "filled with losers," the callous man said.

 

"Suckers" and "losers" are what he calls them--

Those who fought and didn't survive.

To him service and sacrifice

Mean nothing unless you stay alive.

 

The man is such a hypocrite!

His comments are truly unprecedented.

Do his heartless words reflect

His cruel nature, or is he demented?
