President Trump this is DEPLORABLE!





June 29th

President Trump this is DEPLORABLE!

I cannot believe you stooped this low. This is horrible mean gossip that should not be repeated by anyone, especially not someone who is suppose to be acting like the President of a great country. I am angry. I am outraged. I am most of all disappointed.

I must say, once again, you need me to read these BEFORE you make an ass of yourself and tweet. APOLOGIZE AND  BEG FOR FORGIVENESS!

President Trump is Lacking in Accuracy

June 28th,

Oh President Trump,

It all begins with this tweet.


Democrats purposely misstated Medicaid under new Senate bill - actually goes up.

I skipped the graphic, but others can follow the link and see it. My question to you is which Democrats are you referring to and what proof do you have that they purposely misstated  the information? These kind of inflammatory statements by both sides does the American Public a complete disservice.

I would like to remind you of a word today. You may have forgotten how important and valuable the word is. The word is "synergize" and the definition is to cooperate with another or others, esp. to remedy something.

Perhaps this could be your new theme. Let's synergize and do what needs to be done. It is time to just get down to it and work together. 

I know there is a holiday coming. I get "one day" off for the holiday. Maybe it is time for the representatives who serve to have hours and vacations like real working people. 

What do you think?

Delay ~ means failure for now

June 27th

Dear President Trump,

I am terrified to open twitter and see what might be happening. Delaying the vote is not a win, so I certainly hope you are not in the middle of a victory lap.

Hopefully with more time it may pass, but definitely not a win.

Be real,

Trenna

Birthday Thoughts

June 26th

Dear President Trump,

Today is my birthday and that often gives me a time to reflect. You have been President for 157 days and still some say you are "not my president". As I have said before, you are their president until you are out of office or until they denounce their citizenship and leave. It is a simple fact. No matter how many times they "#NMP" it doesn't change reality.

In those 157 days there have some very good days. Most of them were when your twitter account was less busy and the great things happening spoke for themselves.

I think in those 157 days, I have been fairly accurate and fair with my comments. Someday, someone will say "I wonder why no one listened to Trenna." I will probably be long gone, but one day someone will take the time.

Today you were pleased with the preliminary decision the Supreme Court which gave some of your executive order a "yes". While the issue is not completed decided, it did flop back in your direction, at least for a time.

I don't think HealthCare will pass the Senate and I do believe they will take their whole month off and vacation.

Those are my thoughts to day.

News Flash ~ We don't care!

June 25th,

Dear President Trump,

I have not watched you on Fox yet, but I managed to read your tweet and get all twisted up again.


Hillary Clinton colluded with the Democratic Party in order to beat Crazy Bernie Sanders. Is she allowed to so collude? Unfair to Bernie!

We don't care. The election is over. It's a done deal. It doesn't matter how or why at this point. Stop pointing fingers. Please spend your time on things that are more important than infighting. You were not elected to fight with past administrations or candidates.






South Korea Tests Missile

June 24th

Dear President Trump,

Perhaps South Korea tests missiles all the time, and yet I think this is the first one that I believe I have heard of. I do think it would be wise for them to do everything in their power to protect themselves.  I believe long gone are the days that someone from the outside will protect those who won't protect themselves.

Thanks,
Trenna

Misleading at Best

June 22nd

Dear Mr. President,

The off handed remark you tweeted and talked about possible tapes was misleading at best. Some say it was a savvy way to get to the truth. I am not sure that is the way the President of the United States should behave. It is something I am struggling with. It is this kind of misleading that fake new thrives on. Can you convince me it was the best possible decision?

Thanks,

Trenna

Not a fan of the Rally

June 23

Dear President Trump,

As you may know I am not a big fan of the "rally". I think perhaps running for office shouldn't take up so much of our time and tax dollar monies. (I know all of the monies are not tax dollars, but more than I make in two years are spent on one event. There's a reality check for you.)

Another reason is that you often speak in generalities and those are not facts, so people can pick your speech to death. Let me share a couple of examples. Do you know the actual number of MS-13 gang members that have been deported since you have been in office? Sweeping terms like thousands are not correct. People fact check. Does your speech writer check or are you just off the cuff? Because now you are the President of the United States and with that comes the responsibility to be accurate and factual. Since Iowa is a state that uses wind energy, it may have been a good idea to leave the somewhat sarcastic remarks about wind energy out.

This may seem like knitpicking, however, as President you are held to a higher expectation. It comes with the job.

If don't have anything accurate to say, don't say anything at all!

Thanks,

Trenna

Fully Staffed

June 12th

Dear Mr. President,

What a tweet!

Finally held our first full meeting today. With this great team, we can restore American prosperity and bring real change to D.C.

Congratulations! You are fully staffed so perhaps we can get moving on the things that are important to "me"!

Thanks,

Trenna.

Please Pay Attention






June 13th


Dear President Trump,

Please pay attention. Today you failed miserably in getting your message across!  You used the words "fake news" again. Please let it rest.


Missed the Mark




June 11th

Dear President Trump,

I need some advice. How does anyone get your attention to help correct a situation? I sent you well over 100 letters - one a day since you have been elected. I have sent them snail mail, email, and I have been entering them on a blog and tweeting them. I don't believe it is doing any good. (Other than leaving  proof that this Forgotten American is not only forgotten, but ignored. It does allow my Grandchildren proof that I was not silent. They know I tried.

I wonder if I wrote your wife, your assistant, your children, your cabinet members or the the media ~ if then you would hear my voice.

Thinking out loud,

Trenna

WAIT


June 10th

Dear President Trump,

Did I read this right? Did the Democrats and Republicans work together and agree on something? Is it really true?

"Sen. Ted Cruz: Trump's air traffic control plan is a 'win-win' for Democrats and Republicans." I am afraid it is fake news!

Trenna

Don't Pick on Your Own

June 5


Hey Donald Trump! Please listen!

I am so frustrated with this tweet. What kind of leader call his people out publicly on twitter? Not a good one! Very tacky.  Speak to your people directly. I am not impressed.

Jun 5
The Justice Dept. should have stayed with the original Travel Ban, not the watered down, politically correct version they submitted to S.C.

Donald Trump! Source of Fake News!








June 4th

Dear President Trump,

Tweets like the one you did today are misleading. This is how "fake news" begins. You either didn't have enough room or you didn't listen to what the Mayor said in total.



Jun 4
At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is "no reason to be alarmed!"

In context, he was telling the citizens that there was no reason to be alarmed BECAUSE of the larger police presence. That is much different than taking out a phrase and tweeting it. His intention was they should feel protected by the larger police presence.

One of your worst tweets.

Sad!

Did you break Kathy?



June 3rd

Dear Mr. President,

Did you break Kathy? 

I can not believe we are having this discussion. I have watched her apology over and over. I then watched her claim that you "broke" her.  All I have seen is this one tweet.

May 31
Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!

I am so Proud of you

June 21

Dear President Trump,

I am so proud of you. I don't know if it was something I said a whole bunch of time, but you did it correctly. In these tweets you gave them full credit and appreciation. That is such an improvement

15h15 hours ago
Ralph Norman ran a fantastic race to win in the Great State of South Carolina's 5th District. We are all honored by your success tonight!

Congratulations to Karen Handel on her big win in Georgia 6th. Fantastic job, we are all very proud of you!
Thank you for recognizing them is such a manner.
Well done!

Heavy On My Mind

May 29th,

Dear President Trump,

This tweet is weighing heavy on my mind.

May 28
The massive TAX CUTS/REFORM that I have submitted is moving along in the process very well, actually ahead of schedule. Big benefits to all!

It is the little afterthought, that I am not sure is factual that is sticking in my craw. "actually ahead of schedule". I really don't think it is ahead of schedule if you want it passed this year. I am now sure who sets the schedule. But I believe you have just painted another unrealistic picture. 

Don't improvise or guess use actual facts, please and thank you.

Welcome Home

May 28th

Dear Mr. President,

Welcome home. Overall I thought you had a very successful trip. It was not perfect, in my opinion, but very close. For the most part you stayed away from damaging tweets and took care of business. I am hopeful that things will stay that way here at home.

Sincerely,

Trenna

Kathy Griffin ~ you knew!

May 30th

Dear President Trump,

I am sure that Kathy Griffin knew full well what her horrible scene would bring. I don't think moving to Mexico is completely out of the question. (Although I am not certain they would want her either.) There was simply no reason for that graphic image. It was not funny. There is no excuse that can justify that behavior.

I am sorry to have seen something so disrespectful.

Better Days Ahead,

Trenna

We are Stronger Together

May 27, 2017

Dear President Trump,

It sounds like you built bridges with allies. That is a good thing. We are stronger together. We have new enemies we have never seen before. Terrorism is prevalent. We need to work together for the safety and future of our children. Thank you for representing our wishes and desires to the world.

Safe travels home,

Trenna



Did Anyone Notice?

June 20th

Dear President Trump,

I am often confused by what "we" the people find important. I really think we hardly mentioned that we shot down a plane in Syria. I have to believe that it is kind of a big deal.

I don't think I really understand this
"The coalition said the shootdown took place "in accordance with rules of engagement and in collective self-defense of Coalition partnered forces."

What happened and why?

Trenna

A Little Cringe



 This would be your public message!

May 26th

Dear President Trump,

I have to say that I am a little nervous about you calling out the leaders of our allies in a very public manner. Criticize in private, praise in public. It is a great way to parent and negotiate. It got really uncomfortable for us all. What you said was fine, but should have been done behind closed doors.

So much common sense seems to be missing.


Thanks,

Trenna

Hope You Remember!

May 24th

Dear President Trump,

Today you tweeted this.

May 24
Honor of a lifetime to meet His Holiness Pope Francis. I leave the Vatican more determined than ever to pursue PEACE in our world.

I really hope that you remember the way you felt today. Often times we forget those important lessons.

Today I leave you with this song.

Please take it to heart!

Thanks,
Trenna
 


Police Week

May 15

Dear President Trump,

I have never really understood Police Week. All I know is that when they come you cannot find a hotel room at all. Anyway I assume like most conventions they honor some, learn some new things and generally support each other. That sounds fabulous. Officers put their lives on the line for us.

Thanks,
Trenna.

It was so nice

May 14

Dear President Trump,

Did you notice? May 14th was very nice. All you had to say was Happy Mother's Day. Nothing else. What a great day.

Commencement Address

Dear President Trump,

May 13, 2017

Mr. Trump,

I was impressed and inspired by these words.

“Carry yourself with dignity and pride. Demand the best from yourself and be totally unafraid to challenge entrenched interests and failed power structures. Does that sound familiar, by the way? The more people tell you it's not possible, that it can't be done, the more you should be absolutely determined to prove them wrong. Treat the word "impossible" as nothing more than motivation. Relish the opportunity to be an outsider. Embrace that label. Being an outsider is fine, embrace the label, because it's the outsiders who change the world and who make a real and lasting difference. The more that a broken system tells you that you're wrong, the more certain you should be that you must keep pushing ahead, you must keep pushing forward. And always have the courage to be yourself.”

So here I am still writing every single day. I am still trying to make you, who never reads this remember why you are President. I am still pushing, because helping you is not “impossible” you just have to pay attention.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Trenna

What CAN you believe?

June 9th

Dear President Trump,

Okay, I am not understanding the reaction to Comey’s testimony. On one hand he is a cowardly leaker and can not be trusted. On the other hand people say his testimony clearly says there was no collusion. Can you pick and choose what you believe from his testimony? I would assume that he didn’t care if everyone who reported to him leaked information. He did not have the guts to do it himself. He had to have a friend do it. Did he pay his friend to do it? Is he still leaking? Can we now assume that when someone says “unnamed source” you can insert Cowardly Comey? Who else needs to be removed from the FBI?

Thinking Out Loud,

Trenna

Why?





May 12, 2017

Hey President Trump,

One of today's tweets was this one.

May 12

...Maybe the best thing to do would be to cancel all future "press briefings" and hand out written responses for the sake of accuracy???

Now, I don't mind if this is the way you want to handle your statements IF  you are willing to lay off of all the ridiculous  tweets. I never need to hear the words "fake news" again, nor does anyone else. We've got it. 

Maybe we could just start talking about tweeting about actual facts and things we don't know about. This is the only tweet that had any value at all. Even the whole "Mother's Day" item got lost in the drivel.

Again, I am trying to support you as President and you are making my job of doing that really hard.

Get on board,

Trenna

Executive Order Day

May 11th

Dear President Trump,

I guess it’s a good thing that you have Executive Orders. It seems to be the only thing that can kind of get done. They will probably protest and take you to court, but at least it shows that you are willing to do something. Which is more than I can say for our representatives.

Discouraged,

Trenna

Stop it!







May 10th

Dear President Trump,

When things happen that vindicate your ideas and thoughts, just let the evidence stand alone. Your arrogant “I told you so” type tweets are not appreciated. They are not necessary.  They don’t help your cause. They make you look petty.

Firing Comey was fine. It made the statement all by itself. All the chatter afterwards, bad idea.

Stop it,

Trenna

Father's Day

June 18th

Dear President Trump,

For many Father's Day is a time of reflection. Many have lost their fathers and honor them quietly by remembering what was important to them.

Today I wonder what the Fathers of our nation would thing about the state we are in now. Is this what they dreamed of for us? It's a sobering thought for me.

Emotional,

Trenna

Speak for themselves!

May 8th

Dear President Trump,

Here's a novel idea. Why not let people speak for themselves! For example if Sally Yates wants "us" to know something she can call the press, tweet and take care of it herself.

If General Flynn wants to say something or bring attention to me himself, let him. You don't need to do it for him.

If you are going to tweet make is something informative, relevant and positive!

Thanks,
Trenna


If all you can say is "fake news'" please




May 6th

Dear President Trump,

If all you can say is "fake news'" please, SHUSH!

Crystal Clear

June 17, 2017

Dear President Trump,

I have something I want you to think about. It is crystal clear to me the narrative needs to change. You have the power and perhaps the responsibility to make that change.

For a simple two weeks I would like you to personally commit to changing the narrative.  For just two weeks use proactive tweets that have NO negative mention of your personal enemies (including fake news).

Simply report the great things that are being done or are getting worked on. As a Forgotten American all I hear is "poor picked on me", instead of here are the things we are doing for "you".

Here are some exmples.
 "Today we are reaching out to Republicans in the Senate to produce a healthcare bill."

"Today let's turn hope into actions and do something that helps our neighbor."

"Today we are encouraging all Americans to thank a military family for the service they are or have offered."

"Today we all should reach across a party line and give someone a handshake."

I need some "crystal clear", lets get back on track tweets. For two weeks if you can't say something nice - don't bother to tweet.

Do you care?

May 7th

Dear President Trump,

Other than hating Fake News, is there anything else to talk about? Today I feel powerless. I think extreme things happen and people feel powerless over their own future.

I am not certain who Congress is representing, but it’s not me. Today I am asking for your advice. How can “we” be represented. I have tried letters, phone calls, tweets, town halls and have had no results. People from outside my district got more attention than me.

How can the Forgotten American be represented when big money is how you get the Congress’s attention? With the money we have we are trying to decide to pay the power bill, water bill and house payment or buy some groceries. We work every day and get our little pay check.

Does anyone in Washington really care?

Trenna.

Fire with Dignity




May 9th

Dear President Trump,

You had power to fire Comey. I am not certain details of why you felt now was the time. I had concerns about how he handled things and didn’t understand why you allowed him to stay so long.

With that being said, I think calling the man may have been better than just sending the courier.  It seems a little cold and impersonal. Perhaps that was your point.

Anyway, here’s my suggestion. Next time you fire someone, give them a personal call and then follow it with a written notice through US mail. Much cheaper for us taxpayers and much less drama for you.

Thanks,
Trenna

Check on Nancy

June 16th, 2017

Dear President Trump,

I think it is time for someone to check on Nancy Pelosi. I don't she is mentally fit to hold office. She doesn't know who the current President is. She can't be certain which President she is praying for.

Here is a recent little snippet.

"Speaking with reporters, Pelosi invoked Fox News as she recalled a man who was jailed years ago for threats against her. “His mother said, `He just watches too much Fox TV.’ That’s what she said,” Pelosi said. She added that the “crude and disgusting” things she hears come “from the outside.”

I think she is more than past her prime. I think it is time to schedule an appointment and check for dementia.  It's the right thing to do.

Thanks for listening,

Trenna

Healthcare Victory!




May 5th, 2017

Dear President Trump,

I am not sure today was a healthcare victory. I think you may have gone a little overboard. What you got was a few steps in the right direction. Republicans agreed to look at it and Democrats agreed to obstruct it. So lets take a step back and say it like it is. "We are trying to get representatives in Congress to do their job."

Stampede



May 4th

Dear President Trump,

Perhaps you know a lot more about what insurance companies are doing than the public. We are aware that one insurance company is leaving the exchange at least in one state. Still your tweet makes it sound like a stampede. Some of your tweets are simply self-inflicting.

Pointing out the obvious,

Trenna

Poor Betsy DeVose

May 3rd, 2017

Dear President Trump,

It was nice to stop by and give Betsy DeVose a little surprise. She is doing her best and surviving a whole lot of undeserved drama and criticism. People should give her an opportunity to do her job.

So thank you for your show of support.

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

May Ist

Dear President Trump,

I have nothing against Asian American and Pacific Islander citizens. I am confused as to why we have this new politically correct way of giving every different group their own heritage month. It seems to me to be nothing but a vote grab. They can celebrate their heritage any day or month they like ~ I wonder is there some kind of financial reason to have all these “heritage” months?

Thinking,
Trenna

Obama Care is dead?

April 30th,

Dear President Trump,

Please don't say things like "Obama care is dead". My elderly neighbor, who signed up under Obama care came running over in tears. "President Trump said that my insurance plan is dead. I need insurance, what do I do?"

So a simple political tweet can have an effect that perhaps you did not consider. Think before you tweet.

Bombing!






April 28th

Dear President Trump,

North Korea is not slowing down on testing. Yes, another launch failed, but it is simply a matter of time. I completely understand that as an American citizen I don't need to know all the details, and yet I would like to be reassured that we are aware and working on things. I would prefer it be in a formal event rather than the tweet format.

Thanks,

Trenna

Twitter Tamper


April 27th

Dear President Trump,

I feel your pain. It seems like the Democrats are very successful at resistance. However, starting a twitter tamper fit does not help you look presidential, get any Democrats to your side, it

Frankly, You need me.





June 15th, 2017

Salutations President Trump,

Let me try this again. My name is Trenna. I am one of the "Forgotten Americans that you claim to represent. I write to you every single day. Most of time I am spot on.

Who in your circle of advisors understand the Forgotten Americans and the working poor? No one does. No one in your inner circle understands. You are surrounded by billionaires and millionaires who have no idea what our needs and dreams are. The truth is if you want to represent us you have to know us.

I am not afraid to tell you when you are wrong. I am happy to celebrate and tell you when you are right.  Create a position for me. "Forgotten American Advisor". Give us a voice. Let's think together before we tweet.

You really should reach out to me.  You would be amazed.

9th Circuit Ruling

April 26th

Dear President Trump,

The ruling of the 9th Circuit comes as no surprise. So it is time to let the lawyers take on the legal battle and you take on extreme vetting. You do not need approval for that. You can make certain that we are thorough and know who is coming to our country from every other country. Stop the complaining and let it go through the system please.


Thank You,

Canada and Dairy Farms







April 25th

Canada has made business for our dairy farmers in Wisconsin and other border states very difficult. We will not stand for this. Watch!

Dear President Trump,

I grew up in rural America and I know the importance of trade agreements and issues.  I also know what a “bully” is. This tweet is just a bully spouting off. It is not Presidential. It is not informative. It is not appropriate.

Get Real, Get Smart,

Trenna
