Dear President Trump, Oh, oh, oh is there no end of shitty stuff that’s burbled up in the last 24, 48, 72, 96, etc. hours; no shortage whatsoever of mind-blowing crap that you and your hench-people have foisted on the rest of us. Then there’s the recent WP report piecing together how Russia manipulated Bernie … Continue reading Calling out “President Pussy Grabber” and other positives

“…. you don’t have to be so vile and insufferable”
Dear President Trump, I won’t stay on it long, but I have to get this mini-rant out of my system: the argument that the Democrats are being inappropriately “political” in ordering the IRS to give them your tax returns is even dumber than the “voters have already spoken” line of defense. First, everything is political … Continue reading “…. you don’t have to be so vile and insufferable”
Yes, the voters spoke but Mulvaney apparently misheard them
Dear President Trump, I can’t believe I missed it yesterday when I was going on about #100, but a friend texted this morning to let me know he’s happy to be one of the 99 (%) still in the fold, which was quite nice on a couple of different levels, don’t you think? Ah, “don’t … Continue reading Yes, the voters spoke but Mulvaney apparently misheard them
#100
Dear President Trump, The universe is a funny, funny place sometimes. It’s also a downright crappy place sometimes, but every now and then there’s a pretty great absurd irony to call out. A couple of days ago I hit the 600-page mark for the word document where I compose and edit my letters to you … Continue reading #100
Bits and pieces and a joke
Dear President Trump, Dang does my left pinky want to get into the action when I’m typing your name; it just reflexively stamps down on the “a” after I’ve typed the “Tr”. Oh! I just realized that it’s because of my name – “Tracy” so it’s not really all that telling. But still, when the … Continue reading Bits and pieces and a joke
Meta-obstruction
Dear President Trump, There have to be legions of other people who’ve already thought of this, but it occurred to me this morning that we very well may have a meta-obstruction situation on our hands. What if in choosing Barr to be “your” Attorney General you purposely chose someone who would see to it that … Continue reading Meta-obstruction
The GOP is hedging its bets
Dear President Trump, How is it trying to breathe with a bunch of GOP senators sitting on you, taking turns clamping their hands over your mouth? Are they being careful not to “accidentally” cover your mouth and nose at the same time? They certainly have had to work extra hard to keep you from lurching … Continue reading The GOP is hedging its bets
Tricia Newbold deserves a Congressional Medal of Honor
Dear President Trump, Last night Laura was playing a clip of something from Twitter and as I listened I puzzled over who was speaking, having never heard the voice before. Turns out it was your boy Jared talking with Laura Ingraham. Calmly and with great good humor he told her how all the crazy falsehoods … Continue reading Tricia Newbold deserves a Congressional Medal of Honor
It’s hard to enjoy spring when the POTUS is a narcissistic sociopath
Dear President Trump, I know it won’t make it any less of a cheap shot to preface it with an acknowledgment that it’s a cheap shot, but Happy DT Day – who knew (more than two years ago, that is) that we’d ever have a POTUS who is better recognized on April Fools’ Day than … Continue reading It’s hard to enjoy spring when the POTUS is a narcissistic sociopath
Radical empathy (Part 6)
Dear President Trump, You know Mr. President, there are a lot of people out there who toil away at thankless tasks day in and day out, year in and year out. The variety of such tasks is vast; some get undone almost as fast as they are done and some would be squelched if the … Continue reading Radical empathy (Part 6)
