Some Anti Trump street chants, First, non original
By Robert Cogan
Anti Trump street chants
::::::::
Racist, Sexist, anti-gay,
Donald Trump, go away!
Boris and Natasha across the street
Go on home and tweet, tweet, tweet!
Campaign Promises made of spite
There's no way to make 'em right.
With promises made in hate
Your downfall we await.
Shut your Tweet hole,
Get outta sight!
Cold War was a terrifying fight,
Russia and Us went head to head
They were gonna bury us, so they said
Gave us all the nuclear fright!
Trump ignored the Cold War to cozy up
Made Putin deals for campaign help.
Now if Putin can't be the U.S.'s Boss,
Deals go sour and it's Trump's loss!
Elections should be all our own.
Doubt about that trolls have shown.
Race and sex, malice toward some
You dredged up crap that is dumb!
Dupes and Stupes do Putin's works
Nobody there but American jerks!
Putin troll, maybe Trump chump, which were you?
You gave Amerika a Russki screw!
I could be Bernie Sanders older brother by similarity. I was born in Manhattan, 1940, he, about a year later, in Brooklyn. I too am a white male American. A retired college professor of philosophy. We both were born of Jewish parents. I was in Harlem CORE, He in Chicago CORE. We both went to the University of Chicago; me 58 - 62, he 60 - 64 (I think.) And yet, I don't recall meeting him! U. of Chicago had plenty of progressive activists despite being a bastion of Milton Friedman. He went into politics in Vermont in '68 (?) and I settled that year into a college professorship in northwestern Pennsylvania.
I've been a long-time minor activist in the civil rights, anti-war, pro feminism movements and taught critical thinking and social philosophy. I've been a unionist, on the Board of Directors of a food co-op, an ACLU chapter president, a CASA, and an elected Green Party Borough Councilman in my small hometown. I'm happily married, for over 50 years, to a woman significantly responsible for my modest success in life. We have two great kids and one grandchild, for whom we hope there is a decent future! Recently I've been pushing Modern Monetary Theory.
