No ICE, Please!

Trump is looking for a showdown,

Repeating his tired and weary refrain:

How to inflame a situation

So he can obtain political gain.

 

Amping up the ICE raids here

In California: his newest plan.

He wants to show the people that

He's in charge--that he's the MAN.

 

Equating migrants with evil doers--

A racist and dangerous equation--

He says he's going to "liberate"

L.A. from a "migrant invasion."

 

He knew that scary raids by ICE--

His cruel, scummy, and constant fixation--

Would anger people, and thugs would take

Advantage of the situation.

 

He'll say the state can't solve its problems

Of violence. "However, they'll see

That I can fix it by sending in troops.

Everyone, bow down to me."

 

Protests had been peaceful for months,

But Trump right now is overjoyed.

To see how sick the man has become,

You don't have to be a Sigmund Freud.

 

Pursuing his political goals--

Let's call this "The Dictator Hour"--

He's shattering norms, one by one,

And bypassing any limits on power.

 

He's setting California up,

Knowing what would come about.

He loves to start a fire and then

Employ theatrics to put it out.
