There once was a movement called MAGA,
Whose feuds grew much hotter than magma.
At a conference grand,
They all took a stand
And promptly began yelling Blasphema!
At AmericaFest on night one,
Ben Shapiro declared, Were not done.
He scolded the crowd
That some voices too loud
Sell nonsense instead of good sense and a pun.
Said Ben, There are theories run wild,
That are reckless and deeply unfiled.
With microphones bright,
We must challenge outright
The tales that are crooked and riled.
He frowned at the guests others choose,
And the platforms they freely let loose.
If you host shady views,
Youre not just asking cues
Youre normalizing poisonous news.
Then Bannon returned the next day,
With rhetoric set fully to slay.
He thundered with flair,
To a cheering affair,
That Shapiros the rot in the way!
He claimed theres a plot and a grab,
For power, for influence, for clout in the lab.
The crowd roared approval,
Subtletys removal
Was swift as a political jab.
But zoom out a bit and youll see,
Its not just a duel of two or three.
Theyre all throwing blows,
At friends and at foes
A circle of fire on right-wing TV.
So here is the moral, quite stark:
When movements are fueled by a spark
Of grievance and fame,
They turn inward with flame
And everyones busy just tearing the bark.
There once was a movement so loud,
It could argue with mirrors and crowds.
At a Phoenix retreat,
They skipped unity week
And went straight into yelling out proud.
Ben Shapiro took stage with a glare,
And a checklist of folks to impair.
Youve got theories galore!
Please stop talkingno, four!
Actually five! Everyone sit in a chair!
He wagged at conspiracies spun,
Like yarn from a very weird nun.
If facts you ignore,
Youre not brave or hardcore
Youre just livestreaming nonsense for fun.
He scolded some hosts by their names,
For inviting the worst to their frames.
Stop sharing the mic
With guys who think Reich
Is a vibe and not historically lame.
Then Bannon stomped back with a roar,
Like hed just lost a pirate war.
He boomed to the hall,
Bens the problem with all!
(While implying at least twelve more.)
He shouted of plots and control,
And cancer metaphors fresh from his soul.
The crowd ate it up,
Like rhetorical slop
Subtlety left on a stretcher and rolled.
But really the truth of the mess
Isnt Ben, Steve, or Tucker, I guess.
Theyre all in a scrum,
Yelling traitor! at some
While livestreaming chaos in dress shirts and vests.
So gather ye pundits and fight,
Under ring lights both blinding and bright.
When allies turn foes,
And no one quite knows
Who theyre mad at by Thursday night.
