July 9, Elon Musk’s New Party

Hey, Elon! Back the Democrats since Donald’s through with you.
The liberals buy your Teslas; don’t you think some thanks are due?
You financed Donald Trump’s campaign; now he’s cast you aside.
You don’t need a new party; take the Democratic side.

Your ego’s just as big as Trump’s, your well-known legacies
Are both SpaceX and Tesla: Donald’s are six bankruptcies.
The Democrats will regulate while Donald will destroy.
The Democrats annoy you; Trump will sack you just like Troy. (1)

You can preserve your space program and can preserve your car,
And harness solar energy, but not with Trump as czar.
For Trump will try to crush you if you’re not a sycophant.
And that is not your nature; you’re no anal osculant.

So, join up with the Democrats and back their candidates.
Return to days of yesteryear when Congress legislates.
Put Democrats in office and they’ll help throw Donald out.
If Democrats don’t win, there is no law that Trump won’t flout.

You do not need a tax cut to pursue your business goals.
You know damn well that industry requires some firm controls.
Accept some regulations so society can work.
Then partner with the liberals and rein in this dangerous jerk.

You don’t need a third party to foil Trump’s autocracy.
Just join and fund the Democrats to save democracy.
Reliance on the plutocrats should not be your trump suit.
Fund Democrats for Congress and let them give Trump the boot.
