"HAHA, NAZI, SCHMAZI," SAYS PRESIDENT T***P

by George Salamon




"The president of the United States is now a neo-Nazi sympathiser.” 
—Richard Wolffe, The Guardian, August 15, 2017


"Haha, neo Nazi, neo Schmazi,"
Says President T***p.
"All I care about is cleaning up
Washington's putrid swamp."
T***p is a man of business,
Not given to humanist prissiness.
Don't wait for a rite of sacrament
To wipe away Fascist contaminents
He made White House inhabitants.
If you seek to rejoice in his defeat
Your resistance will have to march
To a truly heretical American beat.


George Salamon escaped the Nazis in 1938 and watches their neo rebirth from St. Louis, MO.
