americans are appropriately aghast at the
bumbling, blustering, bloviating barbs, the
ceaseless, calculated calls for cruelty, the
daily, deliberate, disgusting, divisive digs;
embarrassed by egotistical, efforts to
fracture our favor with friendly foreign
governments, goodness, goodwill, greatly
harmed, hailing hostile heads as heroes,
insinuating our institutions are illegitimate,
justice adjudicated by jokers and jesters,
kleptomaniacs, kremlinologist, keekers who
lie loquaciously and loose-lipped loyalist leakers;
media moles, meanwhile making mountains of
nits, the news of this narcissistic nincompoop’s
obsessive obeisance to oligarchs and overlords
putting us in peril, pitching plans to profiteer,
quick to quote the latest quips and quackery,
resistant to reason, reading, reflection, reality
settling scores, this shallow, selfish scoundrel
tweeting terrible, troubling things, trolling
unyieldingly, the underdogs, unsung, upstanding
victims of his vicious vitriol gone viral; voters
will weather this whirlwind waging war with
xenophobic, racist, hating mongers with an X
yes these yahoos will become yesterday’s yarn
zany zillionaires get zip, when zonky zealots zing

An Abecedarian poem for NaPoWriMo 2019 #19 Prompt: write an abecedarian poem – a poem in which the word choice follows the words/order of the alphabet. You could write a very strict abecedarian poem, in which there are twenty-six words in alphabetical order, or you could write one in which each line begins with a word that follows the order of the alphabet. This is a prompt that lends itself well to a certain playfulness.

I do agree.
But to be honest and fair, the report also highlights the failure of the Obama administration for doing nothing for more than two years before the 2016 election when it was already well established that Russia was meddling.

That’s tricky depending on where you get your facts. Obama made mistakes but he was far from complicit and there is also the dogged obstruction he faced from a hostile senate and congress. Things are still not right in Washington any way you look at it. Now that we know what Russia did, it’s time for the current administration to act so it doesn’t happen again.

Don’t get me wrong. I am not saying Obama was complicit. I think, and that’s my personal opinion, Obama’s failure to uphelp his own line in the sand in Syria and his willingness to get the Iran nuclear deal passed left him vulnerable to Putin’s manipulation.

That is true. I just hope they stop it from happening again.

Hoping the current administration to do anything (impacting Russia) may be a pipe dream (unless that’s the trump card for 2020).
