Pledge of Allegiance for the age of Trump

Corrected and Updated Pledge of Allegiance for today's America:

"I pledge allegiance
to the Donald
for the greater profits of the Trump Organization,
and to the Putin
whom he fears,
half a nation
under #PresidentTweety,
divided,
with lip service and judges for all #BolshevikRepulbicans."

Remember when ol' Honest Abe wanted government of the people, by the people, for the people? You must be lonely. Thanks to Trump and the newfangled #BolshevikRepublicans, we're now having an uncivil war between their government of the corporations, by the lawyers, for the richest 0.1% and #PresidentTweety's government of the Donald, by the Donald, for the Donald.

Me? Us? We're just a bunch of peasants. Losers.

Want a laugh? Call your congress-critter and try to tell him you matter more than the dark money from YUGE and EVIL corporations that are funding his next campaign. The Koch brothers matter. We don't.

P.S. I recently finished reading the excellent book Dark Money. Strongly recommended.
