Will get any easier

Trying the strong-arm its friends and foes
It won't
Don't vote against him because the world will be just that much better off
It probably won't be

And begin to reverse the downward spiral

It is but don't

Don't vote against him because you are really afraid
Of what will happen this time if we lose
Don't vote against Trump because it's personal
Because he made your life difficult
Made you feel ashamed of your nationality
Or perhaps even your race (if you are Caucasian)
Or because he made you so angry you developed rashes
Or because he made you drive recklessly
Or because his perversity and lawless oligarchical ways
Turned you into a news junky
Or because he turned you against half the country
And made you wonder sometimes if everything you lived for and stood for
Was nothing but a delusion
Or because he chipped away at your faith in humanity
Don't vote against Trump because he's a pathological liar
A crook and a bully
And just an all-round jerk
There are plenty more jerks where he came from
Don't vote against Trump because he might destroy the world
Even though he would and could
It doesn't have to be that complicated
Vote against Trump
Because you can
