When the Weather Gets Stormy...
(Written to the tune "On Top of Old Smokey")
When the weather gets Stormy,
What does Trump do?
He talks to his lawyer
And threatens to sue.
So he thinks that suing
Will give him relief?
That doesn't much flatter
A commander in chief.
To be a commander
Requires great skill.
Some people have it;
Some never will.
Will he keep hoping
This storm will not last--
That it won't show up in
Tomorrow's forecast?
Forecasts predict, though,
More storms on the way.
Maybe distractions
Will fill up his day:
He'll tweet daily nonsense,
Anger more folks,
Fire more staffers,
Or start a new hoax.
The hoaxes he starts will
Stir up his base.
How does he do that
And keep a straight face?
He'll have to face now
Another big storm.
For him Stormy weather
Is becoming the norm.
