President Trump and the First Lady
made a surprise visit to the troops in Iraq
To thank them for all they have done
to damage and curtail ISIS attacks.
Welcomed by the troops glad to see
their Commander if Chief and his accomplished wife
To a land that since Operation Iraqi
Freedom has suffered way too much strife
And Americans have far too many
casualties and loss of life
Obama cut and ran
ISIS flowed in to inflicted more
misery on the devastated land
After Mattis and Trump on Syria came
to policy blows
It was time for Mattis to go.
After the sounds of silence over the
folly sudden departure from Iraq
The MSM went into a feeding frenzy
over the Matttis sack
Time will tell whether Trump’s
position was right
As he sensed the American nation was
sick of this 17 year fight.
