Dear Joe, or whoever is running the White House and pulling the strings on your limbs, you have failed. We gave you eighteen months, and you have been consistent. Consistently wrong, that is.
It would be best if you started today. If you usually put your right shoe on first, start with the left. It is that basic. Every thought you have, do the opposite, for what you have been doing is 100% wrong.
A few months ago, someone referred to you as President Costanza. We all laughed at the joke, but the joke was on us. You accepted the job as leader of our country, but your compass is broken. You have thrown us into Bizarro World, where in is out, and the left is right. We are lost. It would help if you had a Bill Clinton moment; instead, you turn to Jimmy Carter. As I said, you have to do the opposite.
I have no concern for you saving your Presidency. That is far gone. I do have concern for you protecting our country. The damage you have done and are doing will haunt us for years. Some of us will not be here to see the recovery. That is how badly you have hurt us.
I listened this morning to one of your economic advisors, and there is no wonder I’m afraid you might be mistaken in your policies. He tried his best to show the audience how strong the economy was. He needs to be fired immediately. He taunted the strength of the dollar, the number of people working, and the fact that inflation is already on the decline. All said with a straight face. Did he see the CPI yesterday, Joe? Do you allow your people to watch the news? Or are they restricted to Morning Joe?
This same advisor went off the trail and tried to argue that the Middle East is the most secure it has been in years. Joe, Iran is days away from nuclear capability, which is on you. You agreed with this rogue country to renew their atomic testing after Trump had kept them at bay. You know that the first missile is aimed at Israel as soon as they are ready. I hope you pulled his White House credentials as soon as he got off the air, but you don’t fire anyone for incompetence or ignorance. You reward them. Just look at Kamala if you need proof.
This post is not written with arrogance or lack of respect for your office. It is written out of frustration, and you have yet to earn respect. You have a half-century in Washington with little to show for your time, and in eighteen months in the oval, you have shown us how vital the person behind that desk can be. With the wrong person at the helm, the ship can take on water quickly; in your case, only the tip of our tallest mast is above the surface.
Am I being harsh? Not at all. Those of us pushing seventy were looking forward to enjoying the rest of our time after working hard all our lives. You have destroyed our American Dream, and we now have to look to a new job or second career to sustain our lifestyles. That is our retirement and will be your legacy.
