President Trump

Our interactions may permanently change from now on.

I have to choose Tara Reade over Vice President Biden, and I can't do that while ignoring all other context.

I'm so grateful for every decent thing you've done, and I want you to remember that no matter how things are from now on.  It is a privilege to be known to the President, and I'm sorry that I wasn't knowledgeable enough to be more consistently helpful.

I'll miss your friendship and the kindness of your family, but there's nothing else I can do.  What I did not know about meeting people halfway when Barack Obama was President is what I tried to apply when you were elected.  I'm not sorry.  Sometimes, being hated and even ridiculed is an inadvertent honor, bestowed by hypocrites.
