Dear Mr. Trump;

(An Unfunny Letter)

Yes, I know. You want all us peons to use the term ‘President’ Trump when we address you. If you would notice the term ‘Mr.’ is also a respectful term, but, as we know, you always want more. I think using the term ‘Mr.’ is more than enough in your case already; the term ‘President’ is more respectful than you deserve. Be thankful I said ‘Mr.’ please; I would rather not even use that.

Speaking of which, at some point in your ‘career’, if you could call it that (I would say calling it a ‘constant drift towards grift’ would be more accurate), you got the idea that you could be President of the United States of America. Pretty far-fetched an idea, but I have to admit, you did achieve it! Of course you did it by pulling the wool over a bunch of people’s eyes, mostly the backwoodsies or the amazingly ignorant among us; mostly the working class who spend so much of their time just working or trying to survive that they barely have the luxury to think about anything but survival. They have just enough time at the end of their hectic days to watch a bit of FOX News who slant everything your way because they too know how manipulable the lower classes are and want those American bucks to stuff in their Australian accounts because they are worth more than their Australian bucks.

Anyway, Mr. Trump, you campaigned on ‘Making America Great Again’. It looks like to me that the only thing ‘you made great again’ was your bank account and your power. Once you cast your well painted illusions and allusions aside you appear to have the ability to only think of yourself. All else is smoke and mirrors. You were born a nepo baby- you were nursed in luxury your entire life. You never once had to work for a living, you lived way better than even anyone in the upper class could live. You weren’t born with a silver spoon in your mouth, you were hand fed everything you ever wanted with a golden one. You never knew want, hunger, homelessness, unemployment or any of the other evils that we lesser citizens have to deal with- you only know the fat life. Yet you pretend to be the hero of the working class. You learned not how they suffer or how difficult their lives were- you learned how to manipulate them and how ignorant of the real workings of society we were. And you were good at that! That was your true talent- manipulation of the weak minded, the desperate, the fools, the poor, the ignorant. You got them to think you were their Saviour god rescuing them from a difficult life. You promised them things you would never make good on. And, indeed, you never delivered.

Your real aim was not to make life easier for your minions, but rather for yourself and your ultra rich bedfellows. You used your lower and middle class followers to get you the Presidency that your Ego thought it deserved and you got it! Then once the prize was yours you kept the illusion up that you were The Man Of The People and they believed that too- so much so that you got them to destroy that which you so thought you were going to lose on January 6th, 2020. Then, when you manipulated your way into the Presidency in 2024 again you further degraded this country by pardoning those who had smashed the symbol of our country on that infamous day and maimed and even killed those who rose to defend it. You were and are an atrocity of a President!

So now, again, you have dispelled the sewage of your own chaotic mind in the streets of America and have begun your autocratic takeover of all things in this no longer UNITED States of America by assembling your own private army of ICE agents, who, with their minimum training and intelligence, gratefully accepted their big man pajamas that have the audacity to state in bold letters POLICE upon them and are free to go out and legally rampage through neighborhoods and hurt and destroy anyone they choose to, especially those who stand up to them.

Most offensively, you have chosen to send this sewer of alleged human beings into the heart of the most lovely, peaceful and prosperous city in America, and have them attack like rabid infested beasts the town folk there. Minneapolis was the best, most diverse, progressive city in the United States until you soiled it in your effort to destroy all things that have a taint of Democratic or liberal leanings in your quest for control over all Americans whether they want it or not. Hopefully it will return to that state once your dregs have finally left.

So you, Mr. Trump (notice please I am still being somewhat respectful here, a talent you yourself do not possess) are the last person I would call an American. You are anything but…….
