Can you spell "DIRGE", anyone?

                    *CON ARTIST ELEGY*

                       

So typically

'CHARMING'

[Which is]

All the more

ALARMING!

Yet, what does

A con-artist

Look like??

Some may look

WEIRD,

And thus grow

A beard;

Others just stay

  As a creep...

[Please, remember this]:

He can alter

His 'spots'

Without making a peep;

Adapting, quite flawlessly,

While the innocent

SLEEP !

There's also 'this' on X:

 James M. Thomas (JT) @Insurgent_Prof

Vance grew up in a 4 bedroom suburban home in Ohio, in a family that earned a little over $175k/year in today's dollars and paid for his golf lessons. 

My note: Is he a grifter like the Trump family ???
