Dear Mr. President, One of my letters got lost in the mail but we (my husband, not me) are/is trying to retrieve the letter so you can read it. You haven’t really written back to me but I’m pretty sure you can imagine how much I am trying to reach you. The days, weeks andContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 15, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, Whew, I am really exhausted! How about you? You look pretty good with your tan and hair not flying around like it does when you yell over the helicopter. You also have tremendous, incredible stamina! How do you stand for over two hours and strain your voice with such orations and notContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 13, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, So, how are you? How’s your weekend going? Did you get to attend any Seders or are you planning on a large family dinner tonight for Easter? Do you attend religious services like we do, on Zoom? How are Melania and Barron doing? Governor Cuomo lets us know how he is andContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 12, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, I won’t be able to watch your performance tonight. You probably already know that tonight begins Pesach (Passover), a very important holiday in the Jewish religion. We hope to be on Zoom for a family and friends Zeder (that’s a Zoom seder). Our daughter and son-in-law will lead this. I worry thatContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 8, 2020”

Dear Vice President Pence, I recently became pen-pals with the President but it’s really you that I wanted to write to. I know that you, and the President’s Corona Virus Task Force, have been working so hard over the last 3-4 weeks and hardly sleeping! On top of that, you have to stand for anContinue reading “Dear Vice President Pence – April 7, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, I read that you were on TV again for hours over the weekend. Sorry I missed your incredible presentation of an update on the President’s Corona Virus Task Force’s work. I thought I would catch it today but I fell asleep for awhile so I didn’t get it all. I don’t knowContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 6, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, I hope all is well with you and your family and I hope all is well with all of our families. It isn’t true for so many people all around the world tonight. We wish everyone healing, physical, spiritual and emotional. I was unable to hear much of what you had toContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 3, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, I am exhausted. It’s now about 7:30 and you might still be talking; I don’t know, I quit awhile ago. We had a through the door visit with one grandchild and his parents. They are going on a “Bear Hunt”. Do you know that game? Anyhow, people are putting bears, penguins, otherContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 2, 2020”

Dear Mr. President, What in the world happened tonight? I watched The President’s Corona Virus Task Force Briefing at 5:40 p.m EST and learned we are in a drug war with “bad actors”! And possible war with Iran! I listened to the army guy, the navy guy, some ambassador and the Attorney General (?why?) tellContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – April 1, 2020”

Look what arrived in the mail today! At first I thought the virus had been renamed as President Trump’s Coronavirus. But, of course, that can’t be right. I was glad to see today’s event was done indoors as it was too windy yesterday and it messed up your hair. I also applaud your decision toContinue reading “Dear Mr. President – Look what arrived today!”
