Hamilton Electors Are A Farce

We all thought we had heard the fat lady sing on Election Day

With an encore performance of a concession speech by Hillary on display

We sadly were wrong and the notes we thought we had heard

With the Jill Stein recounts were drowned in the theater of the absurd

Clearly Stein is on the recount stage

To raise money for another presidential election for the Green to wage

But with the possibility of changing the results almost completely nil

Time to move on, take a deep breath and swallow an antacid stomach pill

Little did we know that the anti-Trumpers are a dedicated lot

Led by a band of electors from two pot head states they are trying to from Trump electors peel

They call themselves the Hamilton Electors and there dislike of Trump cannot be concealed

One lone elector from Texas that Trump by a landslide easily won

Has announced that when it comes time to vote in December Trump he will shun

Texas is one of 23 states that do not require electors to vote for the winning candidate

They can vote their conscience and the will of the majority they can negate

The Texas elector indicated today on Fox he will not vote for Trump and probably will not for Hillary vote

In the process of deliberation as he enjoys the attention on his stunt the media will most likely devote

The theater of the absurd continues we cannot get the closing curtain to fall and the actors leave finally the stage

In a world waiting for the U.S. with a strong president to again lead and lead soon watching this farce rage

In the end, if 36 electors do not vote for Trump and will not Hillary support

It’s off to the House controlled by Reds if Trump against all odds comes up short

Has not happened since 1824

Cannot imagine the chaos we would have for us in store

If the House did not vote for Trump to bind the divisive wounds

And finally let the fat lady sing her Trump is our president tune

We need to before the world as a people unite

And stop this nonsense of reliving the Election fight
