Dear Mr. President \u2026 You’re at it again. You’re putting words in the mouths of millions of Americans.<\/p>\n

You’re tweeting goofy messages about whether you’re considering your daughter Ivanka to become the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.<\/p>\n

That Twitter message<\/a> that declares “everyone wants Ivanka Trump to be the new United Nations ambassador.” You add that she would be “incredible” but that you’re already hearing “chants of “Nepotism!”<\/p>\n

Well, duh! Do ya think?<\/em><\/p>\n

First of all, you haven’t called me. Nor have you asked any one of my friends, acquaintances, social media contacts — probably not even those of whom support you and your presidency — about this idiotic notion.<\/p>\n

Thus, you purport to speak for Americans about whom you know nothing.<\/p>\n

I feel the need to remind you, Mr. President, that more Americans voted against your presidential campaign than supported it. Yes, you were elected with an Electoral College majority and I accept the result.<\/p>\n

But, c’mon, will ya? Stop this baloney about “everyone”<\/em> wanting Ivanka to join the corps of international diplomats. She isn’t qualified.<\/p>\n

I mean, haven’t you said that thousands — maybe millions<\/em> — of Americans are lining up to work in your administration? Doesn’t that imply, Mr. President, that you have the pick of a large field of potential applicants?<\/p>\n

If that’s the case — and I find it a dubious assertion at best — then you wouldn’t need to keep floating Ivanka’s name as a possible U.N. ambassador.<\/p>\n

Nikki Haley’s resignation as U.N. envoy surprised a lot of us, Mr. President. I actually applaud the manner in which you were able to keep that a secret.<\/p>\n

I want to applaud your choice of a successor to the tough-talking former South Carolina governor. Nominating your unqualified daughter to do this difficult job — made even more difficult because of your foreign policy pronouncements — won’t produce any applause from me.<\/p>\n

And for the umpteenth time, I implore you to stop putting words in my mouth.<\/p>\n\n
