Ugly and Horrifying, but not Unexpected

It always was a stretch to picture this nation of ignorant,
Racist slobs electing a woman, a black one at that, to be
President. No, they chose one of their own, a swindler,
A liar, a sexual predator, unsightly blowhard, yes, one
Of their own, who assured them that he could get
Clocks to run backward, women in kitchens, blacks
And Hispanics rounded up, run off of white people's
Streets, gas for a dollar, and none of that fretting
That burning it causes the planet to warm. The good
Times have come for these benighted people, and, since
Our new leader opposes elections, it's doubtful that
They'll ever end.

My heart goes out to the vulnerable in the US. This is a truly fucked day.
