My dear Friend and President, DJT,

I'm glad to see that you are back in action today with two meetings on your schedule! You haven't signed an Executive Order in a while so it will be fun for you to wield your pen and praise everyone for putting together a plan to insure that federal projects use raw materials that come from the USA. "Buy American" is a catchy phrase, and my guess is that you will repeat it several times today. 

Talking about "Buy American" makes me wonder about the origins of the roofing materials we're about to purchase. I assume that they are made in America, but I can't find any info about that on-line. What roofing material do you recommend?

I hope your meeting with Vice Premier, Liu He, goes well today. I assume you'll speak to each other in English. Being a graduate of Harvard, his English must be quite good. Don't you wish that you spoke Chinese? Then you could speak to each other in either language and communication would be clear. Maybe Arabella can join you and help with translating.

I hope you get all the trade issues ironed out. It would warm the hearts of those soy bean farmers who are freezing in the polar vortex today to hear that you are getting rid of those silly tariffs. I assume you'll be talking about 5G but since I don't know the first thing about that, I don't have any suggestions for you.

It looks like you are having a nice cold sunny day. I hope you get outside to enjoy it.

Best,
