You Foment Hate

You foment hate

Sitting inside the White House's gate

Forgetting your position you agitate

To maintain hold on your electorate

You foment hate

You foment hate

Sitting inside the Capitol's gate

You obstruct important debate

Calling your opponent reprobate

You foment hate

You foment hate

Sitting inside the Supreme Court's gates

Abandoning the blindness that should be Justice's state

The constitution you negate

You foment hate

You foment hate

Writing stories to exacerbate

Tensions; ignoring facts to obfuscate

Inflame and make irate

You foment hate

Yes, each of you foment hate

Then blame tensions on us; you manipulate

To give you reason to dictate

And impose your will.  You desecrate

Democracy
