I’m sorry that it’s not a happy day for your 74th birthday. I wish I could focus on the “Trumptillas” that your fans have been having for the past few weeks in Charleston Harbor, Lake Havasu, the Detroit River & San Diego, Bay, but the news of the latest murder of an unarmed Black man in Atlanta at the hands of the police has overshadowed the spark of joy I might have had from seeing so many people having fun riding in their boats…..

… I was surprised to learn that you didn’t invite the Dallas Law Enforcement leaders to your roundtable today. I hope you invited Sara Mokuria (SM), co-founder of Mothers Against Police Brutality.

The “defunding” campaign is not about abolishing police departments. It’s about building a system with a different, more compassionate mindset.
