#21) You've Been A Busy Boy


February 23, 2017

Dear Mr. President,

In the past 2 weeks I have watched you fire your NSA director, then deny that there was any problem with him; hold an impromptu press conference that will be the butt of jokes for years to come; allow your surrogates to double-speak their way through the Munich Security Conference; hold a campaign event for a campaign that has already been won; declare our court system a threat to national security; publicly condemn a private company for dropping your daughter's failing clothing line; and, my favorite by far, allowed Secretary Spicer to falsely claim that Iran committed an act of war against the U.S.  Woops.  You have been busy.

I think David Brooks of the New York Times said it best.
"The real fear in the Trump era should be that everything will become disorganized, chaotic, degenerate, clownish, and incompetent."

Seems like you're off to a really smashing start.  I can't wait to see what happens next month!

Staying Tuned in Vermont,
Amy Beaton
