2006 Can Come Back to Bite You
Twenty-oh-six was a good year for Trump--
A fifth child, some love affairs.
We could go into greater detail
But maybe that would be splitting hairs.
Did we say that the little flings
Both took place during his marriage?
I guess certain institutions
Are fair game to flout or disparage.
Two ladies--a porno star
And an ex-playboy bunny--have stories,
Both of which put them in
Slightly different categories.
Both ladies received hush money
During the presidential campaign
In different ways, but nonetheless,
Silence is sometimes hard to maintain.
Despite substantial payoffs, Trump
Denies the affairs even occurred.
But people wonder how many more
Times he's said, "Mum's the word."
How the president wants to define
His marriage--we must reiterate--
Is up to him. Hopefully it's
Appropriate for a chief of state.
We also think that a president
Should be sincere in matters political
And not live a double standard
And act in a manner that's hypocritical.
For white evangelicals
Trump's behavior undermines
Nothing, for didn't Solomon
Have three hundred concubines?
