Allan, Eric Clapton’s I Shot the Sheriff comes to mind and with just a little trumpooning …
Pardoned the sheriff, but no pardon for the deputy
Sheriff Arpaio? Didn’t say I had integrity

All around this D.C. town
They’re trying to bring me down
They say that I’m a racist
I say pardons aren’t a basis
So the basest POTUS tweets

Pardoned the sheriff. Since my rally, there’d been much suspense
Pardoned the sheriff. Trust me, treason is a worse offense

++ To be continued ++
