Dear President Trump, It’s good you went ahead and slapped the idea of readmitting Russia to the G-7 on the table this morning. I was wondering when someone was going to point out that your baiting of Macron and Trudeau and the wanton tariff leveeing were likely at Vladimir’s behest. I didn’t see anything in … Continue reading Real patriotism

GOP spine: MIA
Dear President Trump, I see Melania is slated to attend a Gold Star event today so that will put to rest the furor over her whereabouts, if not her wellbeing. It’s still very odd she was out of the public eye for so long and that she’s not traveling to Singapore with you, but I … Continue reading GOP spine: MIA
Heartsick
Dear President Trump, Yesterday when I sent your letter I hadn’t seen the Tweet from Melania’s phone. It sure sounds cobbled together from canned phrases from your insanely voluminous Twitter feed, but it also sounds too coherent to have been sent by you. Did you dictate to her and she cleaned it up? Did you … Continue reading Heartsick
What is wrong with you?
Dear President Trump, Did your minders not tell you that it’s not appropriate to enthusiastically say “Happy Memorial Day!”? Your tweet earlier today with that opening and the statement that all our dead service members would be so pleased with how great things are going here in America made me shudder. And cringe. Can you … Continue reading What is wrong with you?
Gladiators probably couldn’t protest either
Dear President Trump, How about you! You notched a big #Win (or “#Winning” as your sycophantic VP enthusiastically proclaimed) by coercing the NFL owners to agree that teams will incur hefty fines if players protest on the sideline. I know you aren’t fully satisfied with the rules since players can remain in the locker room … Continue reading Gladiators probably couldn’t protest either
Mein Trumpf
Dear President Trump, You are spewing molten asphalt to pave the way for a civil war with your imperial demand that the DOJ investigate the FBI, aren’t you? You and Team Trump have already laid down the initial subgrade by convincing your base that “fake news,” “alternative facts,” and “witch hunts” are all real and … Continue reading Mein Trumpf
Blackmail fodder
Dear President Trump, This morning I read the excerpts of the Senate Russia investigation about the Tower meeting and it dawned on me that Vladimir P entrapped you. I was trying to figure out why there was the promise of dirt on Clinton and why, by all accounts, it wasn’t delivered, and the proverbial light … Continue reading Blackmail fodder
A petty racist contrarian
Dear President Trump, I’m curious – to what extent did you withdraw from the nuclear agreement with Iran because you want to undo everything you possibly can that President Obama accomplished? Does all this really boil down to you being a petty racist contrarian who can’t stand to let a black man’s legacy remain intact … Continue reading A petty racist contrarian
Raisinets and popcorn
Dear President Trump, Last night as I read the articles about Ruddy G’s statements to Sean H that you repaid Michael C the money he paid Stephanie C (aka Stormy D) I was eating Raisinets and suddenly realized it was like I was watching a bad movie. I’m visiting my mom this week and shared … Continue reading Raisinets and popcorn
Lies and more lies
Dear President Trump, Yesterday when I laid out the main types of lying you do, it occurred to me to wonder whether it really matters which sort of cesspool they burble up from. One could argue that a lie is a lie is a lie, or that a liar is a liar, etc., and since … Continue reading Lies and more lies
