LAW-BREAKER, FELON
As president … Trump is unfit
He’s had his trial … we’ve done our bit
Watched and waited .. open minded
Listened … evidence reminded
Those in the courtroom’s energy
Aware of justice, synergy
Of questions asked … by the jury
Verdict announced … caused a flurry
FIRST president t’was TWICE impeached
Confirmed JUSTICE was within reach
Now judged fairly … now a FELON
TRUTH from Pecker, Cohen, tellin’
Twelve jurors deliberated
Knowing their decision rated
Understood that Trump was fated
By this maelstrom he created
Randomly selected jurors
Did their job and caused a furor
Of the defendant with his LIES
Trump’s lawyers chose them … they’re despised?
Guilty … as the TWELVE were counted
As the tension in court mounted
How did each find? … times thirty-four
GUILTY ... GUILTY … those words were scored
Trump sets another precedent
As he campaigns for president
This cheater’s scheme to win BE FIRST
Satisfy narcissistic thirst
PROOF … Rule of Law binds everyone
Judicial system’s not undone
Example set a precedent
Rule of Law for Ex-president
iNSPIRSTION NYTimes essay entitled:
Donald Trump, Felon.
The former president’s conviction in a New York criminal trial
revealed, yet again, why he is unfit for office.
The Editorial Board, May 30, 2024
QUOTES: from the above captioned Editorial: “The verdict establishes that Mr. Trump committed crimes in hiding pertinent information about himself from the American people for the purpose of influencing the 2016 presidential election. It revealed even more evidence of what Trump is willing to do, including breaking the law and pushing others to break the law for political gain.”
“The former president has never shown much moral rectitude, but the facts presented in the New York trial revealed more information that the public should know about the unethical way that Mr. Trump conducts his life and his business.”
“In the end, the jury heard the evidence, deliberated for more than nine hours and came to a decision, which is how the system is designed to work. In the same way, elections allow voters to consider the choices before them with full information and freely cast their ballots. Mr. Trump tried to sabotage elections and the criminal justice system — fundamental to American democracy.
“Trump tried to sabotage elections and the criminal justice system, both of which are fundamental to American democracy, when he thought they might not produce the outcome he wanted.
The jurors have delivered their verdict. The voters will in November.”
“Judge Merchan was scrupulous in ensuring that Mr. Trump received a fair trial. He blocked the jury from hearing sensational material from the Access Hollywood tape,. AND, he was also forced to deal with Mr. Trump’s attempts to undermine the legal system, and, to limit what Mr. Trump could say to prevent him from attacking and threatening jurors, witness, court personnel and even the judge’s family.
Only the threat of a jail sentence finally kept Mr. Trump in line after 10 fines for contempt of court.
