Day 468
Another lawyer Trump was “very happy with” retired.
Ty Cobb announced he’s bailing out, no hint that he was fired.
Cobb’s counsel was cooperation. That’s not the Donald’s style.
No, Donald likes to fight, dissemble, lie, beguile, and rile.
Did Cobb once think Trump innocent but now he’s changed his mind?
Has Ty Cobb done some digging and can’t stand the facts he mined?
He’ll be replaced by Emmet Flood, who has experience
In previous impeachments, how to fight the evidence.
And, speaking of impeachment, some right-wingers raise that threat
To Rosenstein at DOJ because they cannot get
Internal memos and work papers so that they can smear
Both Hillary and Comey, base intentions they’ve made clear.
Impeachment clearly on the minds of Donald’s legal team,
Not probable but possible, not just Pelosi’s dream.
There’s Mueller’s probe, a hostile Press, and White House disarray,
Too many leaks to stay afloat, the captain’s mind astray.
So gird your loins, take sword and shield and bang the deep war drums.
Defections indicate a sense that Armageddon comes.
Will Trump be leading Pickett’s charge and fail like all of them?
Or ride like Custer to the Greasy Grass and die like him? (1)
We also learned that Trump dictated his own doctor’s note.
Vocabulary and bombast make it quite clear who wrote
The letter Doctor Bornstein signed. Like kids in school who try
to sign their own report cards, they’re soon caught in the lie.
Doc Bornstein also told us that Trump sent his goons to raid
his office and take all Trump’s records that the doctor made.
This violates the HIPPA regs, so Bornstein is one more
Of dismissed Trump associates, a casualty of war.
