Twas Brexit, and the slithy Gove
Did lyre and conival on the bus
All mimsy were the Boris-go's
And remainers nonplussed.

Beware the Farragecock my son
The jaws that grin, the views that catch
Beware that Hopkins bird and shun
The Trumpious pussysnatch

The Donald told such dreadful lies
It made one gasp and stretch one's eyes
The voters, who, from earliest youth,
Had kept a fair regard for truth,
Were mad enough to trust this man,
Though probity went down the pan.

For blaming China’s easier than
Accepting that your business plan
Is holier than a gruyere cheese
You can’t onshore steel jobs with ease.
"But hey, we’ll make some pointless noise.
Know any wetback builders, boys?"

And so, toward the close of caucus,
The Donald, growing ever raucous
And finding Hillary in the mire
Resolved to set her pants on fire.
With Breitbart’s finest on his side
How best could she be crucified?

Why, just invent a load of stuff.
(The time had come for playing rough)
And let the morons spread the guff
For truthiness is good enough.

Then Twitter it across the world -
The easiest slanders ever hurled?
And leave it to the gleeful mob
Repeat! Retweet! Complete the job!

At once a firestorm broke out
You should have heard the rednecks shout.
“Let’s lock her up, the stinking criminal!”
T’was hardly what you’d call subliminal

But good enough to set the die
With a little help from the FBI,
Who took peculiar pains to souse
The emails from the once-White House.

And by the time they beat retreat
The votes were cast for Donald. Sweet!
