My dear Friend and president, DJT,

            What do you think of all the press that WPB is getting these days? I think it's fascinating. According to the NYT, "He is a complex figure whom the right cannot count on to be a Trumpland hero and whom the left cannot dismiss as nothing more than a political hack." You are so lucky that he is a fan of executive powers, knows Article II of the Constitution inside and out, and understands how DC works. It'll be interesting to see if the House decides he's in contempt. 

            I understand that he's been through a lot. Helping presidents through various issues must have been difficult enough, but dealing with his daughter's bout with Hodgkin’s lymphomamust have been an excruciating ordeal. According to his daughter, he's now unflappable.

            Maybe he can share his secrets with you. I'd love to see you do a bit less flapping. You know, your tirades can get tiresome. Like today's tweet about the NYT. "Sick Journalism" sounds like Steve Bannon and he's so 2016. Yesterday's Guardian had an article pointing out that some of your PA swing voters have died so it might be time to change your tune to appeal to the younger set. At least you could thank WPB for working so hard. I'd love to see you acknowledge that a free press is what makes our country great but perhaps that's too much to ask.

            Take care,

            RCA
