Trump likes dictators
Daddy spanked his son
Called NATO allies useless
Fell in love with Kim Jung-un
Erdogan was a buddy
Orban made his day
Didn’t like Justin Trudeau
Was plain mean to Theresa May
Trump’s relationship with Putin
Is a bromance so insane
Not sure if Don owes Vlad money, Vlad has pee tapes
Or Don just likes strokin’ Vladdy’s mane
That summit conference in Helsinki
Really took the prize
Trump publicly rebuffed US intelligence
Instead, backed Putin’s lies
One year on, Trump still sings the song
They stole the election from me
And the MAGA crowd, God-fearing and loud
Follow him into the sea
The truth on Trump becomes more clear
As investigations gather steam
But Trump’s crazy cultish manic crew
Keep living the MAGA dream
Trump wants to be a dictator
And some Republicans want that too
If you think I’m exaggerating
Take a stroll online with Q
This country that I served
Four decades of my life
Never before could I imagine
This twisted time of strife
Trump’s BIG LIE like cancer grew
Made Republicans complicit and corrupt
Made the GOP a party of liars
They are now morally bankrupt
But remember this, all your liars out there
Truth has a way of finding light
The court cases are piling up against you
And history won’t be kind
Even Trump allies shocked by Putin summit in Helsinki:
At a news conference after the summit, President Trump was asked if he believed his own intelligence agencies or the Russian president when it came to the allegations of meddling in the elections.
“President Putin says it’s not Russia. I don’t see any reason why it would be,” he replied.

Trump targets opponents back home
Analysis by Jonathan Marcus, BBC diplomatic correspondent
Before their encounter started, Mr Putin was already winning on points, by the mere fact that President Trump was meeting him in the first place.
But while Mr Putin came over as the seasoned professional, eager to present his country as an equivalent to the US in terms of being a nuclear superpower; an energy provider; and a key actor in the Middle East, Mr Trump seemed more intent on castigating his opponents back home.
A lot of the questions focused on Russia’s intrusion into the US election campaign (the considered position of the key US intelligence agencies) and specifically the indictment by the Mueller probe of 12 Russian intelligence agents.
Mr Trump would have none of it. He visibly seemed happier with Mr Putin’s assurances than he did with the evidence of his own intelligence agencies. And he even welcomed Mr Putin’s suggestion that Russia could join the investigation and interview the alleged perpetrators itself! Washington’s Nato allies and many seasoned observers on Capitol Hill must have been watching in horror.
