I won’t say Brett’s the last straw,<\/p>\n

No meals on wheels, back alley deals,<\/div>\n

Those liberals with their whines and squeals,<\/div>\n
they’re nothing but theatrics.<\/div>\n
The wall is real, it’s no big deal,<\/div>\n
it’s more a great illusion.<\/div>\n
And Brett’s a guy who’ll really try<\/div>\n
to douse news of collusion.<\/div>\n
He’s worked with crooks like Bush and Starr.<\/div>\n
He’s Yale, so, Skull and Bones.<\/div>\n
And, if our ruler is a czar.<\/div>\n
We’re screwed. Shut off your phones.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
