Amazing . . .

President Trump’s Letter to the Speaker of the House Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi

The first clue that much of the six pages of this letter was not written by Mr. Trump is the salutation; “Dear Madam Speaker.” Then it goes through a series of rants. You can catch a version on Politico also.

    Beyond scary

    “Here Are the 29 Most Normal Lines From Trump’s Letter to Nancy Pelosi

    The six-page tirade is the equivalent of 900 or so Presidential Tweets, dictated all at once and slapped on official White House letterhead. It is legitimately horrifying……

    The person above is in charge of the most powerful military force in the history of the world.”

    Trump of course did not write this, though I am sure he added a word here or there. However, I have figured out where it came from, Economist’s View.

    It is merely a compilation of various postings by our very own trolls, most of whom have been deservedly banished here at Angry Bear.

      EM:

      And the Republican Congressional Representatives are indignant and protesting the Accusations as if they/he is innocent. How do they do this? Down in Phoenix Friday to Friday. You around?

    Bess Levin’s perspective at Vanity Fair Trump Pens Deranged Six-Page Impeachment Letter, Mails It to Nancy Pelosi December 17, 2019

    “Something you may also have picked up on is that he is not taking the whole thing very well, a shocking turn of events given that he typically takes slights, perceived or otherwise, in total stride. The president has raged against the impeachment inquiry as a politically motivated “witch hunt,” claimed on a near hourly basis that he’s the victim of “harassment,” called for Rep. Adam Schiff to be questioned for high treason, and suggested the U.S. execute the whistle-blower’s sources like “in the old days.” Most recently he decided, the day before the House holds its momentous vote, to send a completely unhinged letter to Nancy Pelosi filled with dozens of falsehoods, characteristically deranged capitalization, insults, historic self-pity, and incredible claims like the one about how he’s been treated worse than “those accused in the Salem Witch Trials.” It’s the sort of document that itself makes the case that Trump is unfit for office, but which his staff, in all its infinite wisdom, apparently decided to let him put on White House letterhead and release for the world to see.”

    The highlights:

    Run,

    Unfortunately not. I am moving to Chicago after the holidays, and a trip is necessary.

    All of this is to create media coverage of…..Trump and everyone is falling for it. I saw the same thing happen in 2015 and the same is now. Trump and team are astute media entrepreneurs that seize the current tongue of the news media from all types. He is winning.
