The time has come again
To take the media to task
Not for easy questions
But for questions they don’t ask
 
When promises are made
(Within the time that you allow)
It would serve the public
If you followed up with, “How?”
 
How will you get the PRC
To give up oil and coal?
You’ve got to give specifics
To achieve that kind of goal
 
Do you think that boycotts
Will get Xi to think your way?
Intimidating China’s
Not the same as Chick-fil-A
 
You say you’ll do away with
Every car that runs on gas
In what part of the universe
Will such legislation pass?
 
On Day One you’ll give orders
To erase all student debt
What gives you such a power?
That’s the thing that I don’t get
 
You’re gonna tax the wealthy…
In your plan, I am well-versed
BUT to use that money
Shouldn’t you pass those taxes first?
 
Regarding Soleimani
You DIDN’T ask what they’d have done
Or about the protests in Tehran
That have begun
 
I don’t expect great answers
I’ve watched enough of these
But next time, ask them questions
With some impact, if you please.
