 The Candidate
 
He once proclaimed with pride and pomp
His sure-fire plan to ‘drain the swamp’.
It sounded fine when on campaign
But all he did was swamp the drain

“The US and the UK are like . . . two verses  of the same poem – so said President Donald Trump to King Charles during his unprecedented second state visit . . .”  - Guardian


A bold assertion, DJT,
But yet another not worth crediting.
If it were true, the piece would be
A work in need of drastic editing
