For the last weeks of his presidency
Obama governed by executive orders
Trump has barely moved in the White House
He spends his days signing decree after decree
Repealing his predecessor's work
Both exercising their presidential power
To put their stamp on the world
Avoiding to pass legislation
Through the legislative process
What an exercise in democracy !
Where is the people's voice?
How sad it is to see the day
The first modern democracy
Declared to be a flawed democracy.
