Donald Trump’s politics in one song
Donald Trump’s favorite musical is said to be Evita, the story of the fascist/populist couple Juan and Eva Peron, who guided Argentina from status as a rich country to being pretty much of a third-world wreck.* Isaac Butler wrote about that back in November, but he missed a key point. More precisely, he missed a key song, whose lyrics I shall copy below. (I think this is one of the rare cases in which printing a song’s entire lyrics is clearly fair use.) Emphasis added.
*In real life, Juan Peron was vastly more influential on his country than his second wife Eva, not least because he lived much longer. But the musical portrays them as more equal partners, giving her great credit for his original ascension to power.
Art of the Possible
OFFICERS
One has no rules
Is not precise
One rarely acts
The same way twice
One spurns no device
Practicing the art of the possibleOne always picks
The easy fight
One praises fools
One smothers light
one shifts left to right
It’s part of the art of the possibleEVA (on the air)
I’m only a radio star with just one weekly show
But speaking as one of the people I want you to know
We are tired of the decline of
Argentina with no sign of
A government able to give us the things we deserveOFFICERS
One always claims
Mistakes were planned
When risk is slight
One takes one’s stand
With much sleight of hand
Politics–the art of the possibleOne has no rules
Is not precise
One rarely acts
The same way twice
One spurns no device
Politics–the art of the possible
