May 22 2020 Dear Mr. President, Shabbat Shalom, it’s a few hours until Shabbat and my challah is in the oven, the Roasted Carrots with Tahini Sauce, ala Adeena Sussman (not a relative, too bad, she’s terrific) and sliced eggplant that is also roasted are all ready as well. I hope they last until dinnerContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 22, 2020”

May 21 2020 Dear Mr. President, You were so close by that I was sorry not to come and see your performance at the factory. Also, you could have stopped by for a cup of tea. Do you remember the old television show called The Millionaire? Every week a deserving person would get a visitContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 21, 2020”

May 20 2020 Dear Mr. President, How are you feeling today? I know some medicines take a while to see any results or reactions. Have you noticed any side effects yet? I looked up the side effects again today (remember, I warned you about some of them yesterday), and noticed a few more. One isContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 20, 2020”

May 19 2020 Dear Mr. President, Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about leadership. I know it is a topic you are also interested in and since you are also an expert leader, I thought I would bounce a few ideas off of you. I look back at leaders I have known in my life.Continue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 19, 2020”

May 18 2020 Dear Mr. President, How was your guy’s weekend? We didn’t really have any news items that came to light. You called it a “working weekend” but who was there? You know, all work and no play makes Donald a – shoot, I forgot how that old saw actually ends. I think itContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 18, 2020”

May 16 2020 Dear Mr.President, I don’t usually write to you on Shabbat but I have important new information to share. The President’s Daily Schedule shows that you are at Camp David again this weekend. I thought you were getting away with your family but it turns out this is a “guys’ weekend”. Are youContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 16, 2020”

May 14 2020 Dear Mr. President, Not much happened today so there isn’t much to discuss. Your schedule wasn’t that full, again. Really, it hasn’t been that full for awhile. You mostly have one event a day. Today it was the trip to Pennsylvania to tour a factory making PPE or some other equipment andContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 14, 2020”

May 13 2020 Dear Mr. President, Hi, how ya doin’? I know, a little too casual? It was that kind of day here in Michigan. Sunny, warm, or what warm has felt like this year in Michigan (not snowing, raining or seriously windy). We took another ride, had some distance visiting with family (don’t tellContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 13, 2020”

May 12 2020 Dear Mr. President, I tried to write to you earlier after hearing some very Important news that I wanted to make sure you knew about before you met with the Republican Senators this afternoon. I thought I sent the letter but, apparently, I lost it on the way to the post. IContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 12, 2020”

May 11 2020 Dear Mr. President, It’s been weeks since we last saw you in the Rose Garden showing a variety of products that you appeared to be selling. Maybe, if the president thing doesn’t work out, you could get a job on QVC selling things like Q-tips, plastic gloves or ventilators. It was farContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – May 11, 2020”
