My dear Friend, DJT,

            Tee-total. Do you know where that word comes from? I looked it up this morning when I learned that both you and JRB eschew spirits. I learned that a guy named Robert Turner, stuttered, so when he advocated for TOTAL abstinence, it came out as TTTTotal. I always associated the word with drinking tea rather than wine, but now I know better.

            According to the NYT article about how you & JRB do not drink, both of you have alcoholics in your family & realized that if you wanted to realize your ambitions it would be best to avoid adult beverages. My husband now wishes he had done the same. He punishes himself every day for consuming beer, despite his knowledge of his father’s struggles with addiction. I appreciate that you don’t drink & I encourage you to be more vocal about that lifestyle choice.

            Are you sure you want to go to Greenbay today? It’s going to be chilly & none of the hospital personnel want you to come. You might be doing yourself more harm than good. According to the Guardian, GOP women in the suburbs are troubled by your CV response. When they see you assembling several thousand people in a hot spot, it looks like you are oblivious. You aren’t oblivious, are you?

            Don’t you wish there were more hours in the day to learn about all of these races around the country? I’m especially interested in the close ones between men & women. The one that caught my eye today is between MO Gov. Mike Parson (MLP) (R) & Nicole Galloway. He’s getting desperate now & taken to attacking her for going to a private Catholic girls’ high school. I would hope that no one would hold that against her. You went to a private boys’ military academy & that hasn’t been a problem, so I don’t see why her educational path should affect her performance. I encourage you to call (MLP) & tell him to try a different tack.

            Gotta go,

            HYITL,
