Dear Donald

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8929179/PIERS-MORGAN-Dear-Donald-head-held-high.html

PIERS MORGAN: Dear Donald, you’ve lost and - unless you actually have real PROOF of fraud - stop sulking, suck it up, and go now with your head held high before this pathetic tantrum wipes out everything your followers still have to admire you for

Your presidency, to borrow the words of Monty Python's legendary dead parrot sketch, is 'not pining, it's passed on! This presidency is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late presidency! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies! It's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-presidency!'

I say this not to gloat or mock you - there are plenty of your enemies gleefully doing that already - but to be your brutally honest friend at a time when you need brutal honesty from those who actually like you.

And despite your notoriously thin skin, I believe from my personal experience that you do value friends who give it to you straight.

That's why you called me for a long very cordial chat two weeks ago, despite me being one of your most ferocious critics over your woeful handling of the pandemic and George Floyd protests.

"...before this pathetic tantrum wipes out everything your followers still have to admire you for..."

His pathetic tantrums ARE what his followers admire.
