I'm sorry, but what is with the calligraphy?

On the envelope full of conspiracy BS from Guiliani to Pompeo.

Who did that? Why? Is this a common thing in DC? Is it 1830?

1. And it's not even that well done. I used to be a calligrapher and this kinda sucks.

9. Fake Font

It looks like the kindergarten version of someone just learning calligraphy. Someone who isn’t advanced enough to use the different pens.

It has that bald look about it.

10. Absolutely. I probably shouldn't have said I "used" to do calligraphy. I meant I don't do it

professionally anymore, like for weddings, etc. The calligraphy was half-assed yet pretentious, just like everything else connected with that thing currently infesting the White House.

2. A lame attempt to make it look official, probably.

Instead it looks like a cheap wedding invitation.

7. That was my thought. A bad attempt by

a mobster with no class and bad taste to look fancy and official.

3. I wondered who penned that when I saw first the photograph yesterday

a strange thought to come to mind...it stood out as incongruous.

5. Pompeo like pretty things?

He always struck me as a guy who liked things to be just so and pretty. I don't know why, he certainly does not give that impression to many I don't think but this did not surprise me at all.
