OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT TRUMP
#001 . . 2/24/2025

Mr. President, I am a registered Republican in South Carolina. You have espoused some good goals for your administration, but you have made me ashamed.

FOR:

(1) the many lies you have used to support your actions,

(2) the hypocrisy you have shown in railing against the weaponization of government only to do so yourself to the extreme,

(3) your abandonment of our allies in favor of supporting our enemy in the form of Putin’s Russia,

(4) your illegal, immoral, and impractical proposal to remove the citizens of Gaza and replace them with resorts;

(5) your use of a “Bull in a china shop” approach to cleaning out “waste, fraud, and abuse” in our government that results in more harm than good

(6) Your use of an un-elected MUSK-Wolf to clean out the rats and guard the hen house

(7) Your confiscation of legislative authority for your personal/administrative use

(8) Your disobedience of US laws and Judicial orders

(9) Your indiscriminate release of January 6 criminals

(10) Your initiation of tariff wars that seem more likely to raise the cost of living than to lower it.

Your margin of victory in the electoral vote was impressive. Congratulations! But in the popular vote, more people voted for other nominees than voted for you. Any mandate from the general population in America is quite small. Backlash from offenses like the ten I listed above could lead to a Democratic sweep in 2026 and 2028.

I know that is not what you want, but I believe that is where you are headed.
