Dear Senator,
Really? Did the President of the United States of America really attack that brave, determined child? That fearless girl? Seriously? Greta? That Greta? Really, really.
Here is yet another cartoon-villain moment. I can see "Snidely Whiplash" rubbing his hands together with evil glee.
I mean just look this kid! She positively glows with intrinsic purpose, goodness and sincerity. Put some armor on her and she'd be Joan of Arc! Bad optics for the POTUS, another example of an "Ugly American" we didn't need. Average response to this pettiness? "Jealous much?"
We already owe the world an apology and a cookie. What we need is a hero. An American hero. A man of few words and gravitas who doesn't avoid military service with a lame excuse or bully a hopeful, fearless child! Do you know any taciturn, Southern gentlemen with an "Aw, shucks!" quality that screams "America"? Do you know anyone like that?
You could stop the inevitable disaster that's about befall us. Make no mistake, something is coming, you know it, I know it too. Whatever it is, it's going to be bad! Keep some space for yourself, you'll need it. Since brain surgery, I get ideas and this one involves you! All you'd have to do is the right thing. You'll know what it is and what it isn't. You are in a unique position: people believe you and you could bring us all together. I know this sounds really risky but by rejecting hate and suppression and choosing truth and lawfulness you could make us truly great, something to strive for.around the world.
I initially thought #45 was just an annoying bad joke I would have to tolerate for four years. Now he has proven himself far more destructive and just yuckier than I could have ever imagined.
You could make the iron grey fog that's clouding our country lift and bring out the sun and the truth.
This is your Save-the-World Moment:
When future students Google you, what will they see?
Nobel Prize Winner and World Saver or Trump Sycophant?
I believe you'll make the right choice. At the right time.
I'll be hoping (c'mon, it's Christmas, you have to do the right thing) and watching (I mean, what else can I do?). Besides, if you get too close to the POTUS (shudder) I'll keep bugging you (hello, I'm an invalid, why not pester you?) until you stop it.
