DAKAR, Senegal—The U.S. State Department is opening new, military-style training facilities around the world, expanding plans to prop up local forces battling terrorism as the Trump administration seeks cutbacks in conventional diplomacy and development programs.

To be a diplomat today for good ol' Uncle Sam
you gotta shoot a rifle and perform a body slam.
Negotiation is old hat; our allies need to learn
that if they don't kowtow to us their cities we will burn.
Our britches are capacious, we can fit in them with ease.
And all the world will soon begin to grovel and say 'please.'
Cuz if they don't we've got a drone that visits them at night
and drops a little present right upon their naked site.
It's not that we won't talk at all, or quarrels like to pick;
we only want the world to know we carry a Big Stick.
Twould be a very naughty thing to label us a 'brutes.'
(We just might have to break your neck with one of our jackboots.)
