My Dear Friend and President, DJT,

            Are you still on a high from that warm reception that you got at the football game last night? Sounds like it was a great game! I’m sure you’ll be hosting LSU at the WH soon, and when you do, please thank Joe Burrow for lifting up the poor folk in Plains, Ohio when giving his Heisman Trophy acceptance speech. Apparently, his brief remarks sparked a fund- raising campaign that has yielded $506,000 for the local food pantry. He can give you some pointers in humility and grace.

            I encourage you to practice more of that – not only because it’s the right thing to do, but because the voters in the swing counties yearn for it. Holly Rasmussen, was quoted in the Guardian suggesting you, “Zip it a little bit. Bring it in. Calm down.” Kelli Gosch would like you to avoid disrespecting immigrants because “it gives validity to people who are idiots.” They might vote for you again if you tone it down.

            You can start practicing humility & grace at the Milwaukee rally tonight. You might also avoid saying anything about Foxconn (AKA Hon Hai) & that deal to build a big plant in Racine you were so excited about a while back. I’m sure you know that fizzled and it’s a big embarrassment so best to talk about the Packers and the Badgers.

            Enjoy the day,
