You’re far from my ideal candidate
But not because you’re “hawkish” or a “frump”.
And those who say you’re just as bad as Trump
Are utilizing politics of hate.
Your record leads a lot to be desired
When we consider that illegal war
Your stance on sex workers I can’t ignore
But all the smears about you make me tired.
It isn’t very easy to decide
If you would be a president of stature
Or just another bloody Maggie Thatcher
When everything I read about you’s snide.
If you beat Trump, I’ll celebrate and gloat
But I am kind of glad I cannot vote.
