Ivanka Trump
broke federal records rules
by sending government emails
with a private account.
Now that the president
has found himself
in a muddle of hypocrisy
what will he do?
Rather than changing the "her"
in "Lock her up"
to mean his own daughter
or even scrounging up a muddling
passive-aggressive apology
he has portrayed her
as an innocent child
who didn't know any better
some way somehow after hearing her father
bellow Hillary's supposed transgressions on repeat
throughout his campaign.
Whoopsy-daisy.
