Mr. President, ⠀ I don’t know if you’ll ever read this. Probably not. But I’m writing it anyway because my wife and I talk about this all the time, and somebody needs to say it out loud. ⠀ We can’t wait for the day you’re no longer President. ⠀ Not because we’re tired of you. The opposite. Because you deserve to go home. You deserve quiet mornings. You deserve to sit on your own porch without the weight of 330 million people sitting on your shoulders. You deserve your family back. You deserve peace. ⠀ You didn’t have to do any of this. ⠀ You had the money. You had the name. You had the life most men only dream about. You could’ve spent the rest of your days golfing, traveling, watching your grandkids grow up. ⠀ Instead you stepped into a fire that nearly cost you everything. ⠀ They mocked you. They sued you. They raided your home. They tried to bankrupt you. They tried to lock you up. They dragged your wife and kids through the mud. They put a bullet through your ear and you got up with your fist in the air and kept going. ⠀ For what? ⠀ For us. Regular people. Truck drivers. Welders. Waitresses. Roughnecks. Farmers. Single moms working two jobs. Grandparents on a fixed income watching the country they built get handed away. ⠀ You didn’t owe us a thing. And you gave us everything. ⠀ You risked your name. Your legacy. Your safety. Your family’s safety. Your brand. Your freedom. All of it. So this country could have one more shot at being what it was supposed to be. ⠀ And the truth nobody wants to admit? ⠀ We didn’t deserve a President like you. ⠀ A nation this divided, this ungrateful, this asleep at the wheel didn’t earn a man willing to bleed for it. But God sent you anyway. And I’ll thank Him for that until the day I die. 🙏 ⠀ So when the day finally comes that you walk away from that desk, I hope you sleep good. I hope your wife laughs again without looking over her shoulder. I hope your kids breathe easy. I hope you golf till the sun goes down and nobody bothers you for nothing. Donald Trump works more than one week than Joe Biden worked in four years. Yeah. ⠀ You earned every bit of it. ⠀ Thank you, Mr. President. From a retired auto worker in Ohio, who prays for you often. ⠀ God bless you. God bless your family. And God bless the United States of America. 🇺🇸
