I'm an undeclared voter.

I suppose that is why I received a form letter from Melania Trump. It is a two-page begathon and praise feast for Donald. They want my money.

Well, I want his money, but I doubt that I will receive any. They provided an envelope, but cheaply didn't pay for the postage back. The envelope is addressed to Melania's fund. So. I have no illusions about the fact that some low level worker toiling away in the mail department will be the one to open this envelope.

I so much want to write a blistering letter back, citing my distress over Trump's pResidency, the fact that he is holding children in cages, which is a crime against humanity, and how much I hate him for the denigration of his fellow humans and his nasty, overall evil bearing in this time of trouble. I want to demand the ventilators. And I despise him for using his wife to beg for money that the GOP doesn't deserve. I am going to send such a letter back to the WH.

Melania signed this letter. I was startled to see how incredibly similar to Donald's signature Melania's is, what with the saw edges and shark's teeth configuration. It is bizarre that such two people would have virtually the same signature.

What is your take on this? Any comments? I don't intend to threaten anyone, just express my extreme dislike of Trump and perhaps the fact that I am going to vote him out of office along with the whole GOP.

..........I always check to see if they provide return envelopes. Why? Because most of the time, if you look where the stamp should go, it says something to the effect of, "Postage pre-paid, but if you can afford a stamp, please use one." Because if you use your own stamp, the campaign (or the RNC, or whoever) doesn't get charged. So I always stuff that envelope with as much crap as I can and then make sure to return it WITHOUT a stamp. I've always had a fantasy of taping the return envelope to something heavy like a cinder block and then making them pay the postage for that, but I've never actually done it. Hey, maybe if you have the Coronavirus, you could just cough in the envelope and then return it. LOL

...I'm registered as an Independent. Its actually quite illuminating. I mostly get mail from Democratic candidates, office holders, etc. But I live in a purple district...its very telling in many ways, whom I get mail from Republicans....and those Democrats I don't.

For example, the State Senate office holder is Republican...but he's sent literature on everything from the Real ID to emailing links, resources, help lines, etc. if you have been laid off due to the virus and how to obtain unemployment, health, housing, etc. benefits. He's probably going to hold his office...I haven't heard jack from his "D" opponent. But this is at the local level.

On the national, haven't heard jack shit from the Repub...completely opposite from the Democratic that is running for the vacated spot.
