As the Capitol was dumped
Now you run from responsibility
Of blaming your Trump
Shame.

Sadly I think you’re right….I wrote something once that all I can do as a poet is record what I see…I can’t change the world…..to my way of thinking change will only come about by a mass people movement led be a strong leader…eg Martin Luther King ….
