'Twas just hours before 'peachment and all through the night

Not a single Republican prepped for a fight
"That's not necessary", they offered "You see,
He's one of ours and that's all he needs to be!"

"But, surely" said Democrats, "surely you'll listen
To all of the evidence---nothing is missin'!
He goaded his zombies till we were attacked!
They followed his orders! You know that's a fact!"

But, Hawley and Johnson and Cotton and Cruz
Replied "We don't care! There's no way he can lose!
He's got billions of dollars; he's got the Trump name!
There are hundreds of underlings that he can blame!"

So tell me, America---how will this end?
Will democracy fracture or will it just bend?
Don't sit there and ask "What can one person do?"
Call your senators! Tell them THEY'LL ANSWER TO YOU!
