Someone tell Trump he just gets to appoint;
Senators then must advise and consent.
Trump is not God, does not get to anoint,
Until the senators vote their assent.

So, Donald, feel free, go on, nominate.
RFK, Gabbard, Gaetz, Hegseth, unfit,
Four nominees likely to decimate
The agencies where you want them to sit.

Is this a test for abject loyalty?
A gambit that shows how Donald plays chess?
We know that Donald thinks he’s royalty,
Not needing Senators to tell him, “Yes.”

With flexing of muscles, gnashing of teeth,
In just one short week, the battle’s begun.
Who will receive the victorious wreath?
Will our democracy have been undone?

Trump’s telling us all that he will castrate
Experts in all government agencies,
As he arrogates control of the state,
Fulfilling his narcissist fantasies.

Donald Trump views expertise as a threat
To his exercise of total command.
But with Trump in charge, we must not forget,
Six bankruptcies and his failed business brand.

Does all this mean that End Times have come?
The end of our nation’s democracy?
With the whole government under Trump’s thumb,
Can we survive Trump’s planned autocracy?

Kakistocrats, and the worst of all, Gaetz,
Will take a wrecking ball to government.
What will be left of our United States,
After Trump’s finished with his ravishment?
