Song information
This is my protest song about the current situation the world is facing under MAGA

At my workplace, we’re already feeling the impact of recent policy changes. The cost of importing telescopes from the U.S. has surged by approximately 20%, making it harder to remain competitive. Naturally, this raises serious concerns about consumer demand — and if sales drop significantly, jobs, including mine, could be at risk.

What’s truly troubling is the broader context. How did we end up with a world leader who appears to disregard the long-term economic stability of working people? There are growing allegations of market manipulation — watching stock prices plunge only to see them rebound suspiciously, benefiting a select few insiders. These are the kinds of activities that would typically raise red flags for insider trading. But instead of accountability, there’s open bragging about how certain associates have made billions.

It begs the question: is this leader somehow above the law? His actions in just the first few months of office have already created significant instability. If this is the trajectory, what will the world — and the economy — look like four years from now? We need to seriously reflect on the consequences of our electoral choices and the kind of leadership we want steering our future.

Apologies for the passionate tone, but as someone deeply committed to progressive values, I’m genuinely concerned. Australia is heading into an election in just a few weeks, and the far-right candidates are pushing an agenda alarmingly similar to Trump-era politics. If they succeed, it could threaten the foundations of the prosperity, fairness, and social cohesion that define this country. We can’t afford to let extremism undo decades of progress.

Lyrics
Carnival Con
by Gerald G ©Copyright 2025

Verse 1

He tweets a tantrum, stocks go black

Tariffs rising, markets crack

Blames the wind, then blames the rain

All while counting profit gain

Golf club deals behind closed doors

“America First” while offshore soars

He plays the fool, but knows the game

Insider tips — but he shifts the blame

Chorus

It's a house of lies, built on blood and gold

A carnival con with a flag to hold

They cheer his name, too blind to see

He's selling out their liberty

Burn it down — this house of fraud

Truth is banned, and greed is god

Verse 2

Fake diplomas, phony wars

Bible raised for photo scores

Every scam, a smoke-filled trail

From red hats to campaign bail

Indicted men in MAGA caps

Still clap along with all the traps

He cries “witch hunt!” — fear and fire

While dancing round the federal wire

Chorus

Instrumental

Bridge

'God chose me'  he said —
as the bodies piled high

And the rich got richer
 on a patriot’s lie

He’ll sell the soul of every state

If it helps him dodge that prison gate

Outro

Burn it down this road of shame
This con is over, shout his name!
Orange king with plastic crown

Time’s up, F***ER! — you’re going down!!!!

Powerful song. Excellent work Garni
I don't get involved in political topics. 
But I am very concerned about a world recession and the impact Donald Trump has on all this.

God bless protect and prosper Donald Trump, Viktor Orban, Dominic Tarscynski, Marine Le Pen, Pierre Poilievre, Javier Milei, Robert Fico, Danielle Smith, Giorgia Meloni, Gert Wilder, Nayib Armando Bukele, Nigel Farage, Afroditi Latinopoulou, Daniel Noboa, and the many other brave world leaders who stand against the utterly corrupt and perverted current global "order." 
May we all live to witness the final defeat of radical Leftist ideologies with their tyrannical regimes, suppression of free speech, endless war mongering, normalizing of sexual perversion, child sacrifice and mutilation, proliferation of faux "genders," destruction of women's sports, attempted destruction of national sovereignties through illegal and immoral mass imigration, and much more... 
Sane and moral people all over the world have had ENOUGH!

Powerful, moving, superb production. In my mind, this has a place alongside the finest protest music and anthems of the last century.

That's a great song Garni.  As a Canadian you can guess where I stand but Donny boy is only the result of the poison that has been infiltrating in the western world for a long time.  Its not a left or right thing and with these tarrifs, corruption, fake news everywhere, hatred among eachother, war, invasions, regime changes, etc is beyond repair.  I'm afraid its not going to end well.

Thanks for listening, everyone! 
I know we all have different political views, and I respect that. Personally, I lean more to the left—that’s just where I feel most at home. I get that some of the political statements in this song might not sit well with everyone, and that’s completely okay. You’re absolutely entitled to your opinion, and I hope that difference never gets in the way of our friendship.
