Dear Sir:

It’s been hard to avoid the serious Twitter (or X, as you prefer) squabble between you and the President of the United States during the past few days.

I am not going to get into that.  

What I want to do is talk more seriously about what you can do to achieve your concerns regarding lowering the deficit and the debt, and cutting government spending. I agree with you that something needs to be done to lower these things. If not, this magnificent country will eventually fall apart.

However, it occurs to me, based on your background and some of your comments and actions, that you are new to American politics and policy, and don’t really understand how things work. American politics/policy always moves slowly. Usually, at a glacial pace. And the “winners” are those people who understand that fact and behave accordingly.  

Much as I despise the ends that George Soros seeks, Soros is a “winner” when it comes to American politics/policy. I know you know him, who he is, and what he does. (I had some fun with that, during the last year.) Soros, a foreign-born individual who found it amusing to help the Nazis, despite coming from a Jewish family, may be a James Bond-like villain, but he is smart enough to be in America politics/policy for the long-term, and he has made the Democrat Party his personal plaything. He has shelled out billions of dollars, and funds all sorts of PACs and non-profits.  As a result, the Democrats have moved steadily to the left and are only all too willing to bow down before George Soros and his spawn.  

I don’t recall George Soros ever attacking a Democrat President in public. That is not his style. Instead, he gives them and their minions his money and support, and they know that as long as they continue to promote his ideals, that money and support will continuously flow to them. Money talks in American politics/policy.

There are other examples as well. The so-called Koch brothers (now, minus one), who have been working for decades to implement their tax-cutting, smaller government, and isolationist ideologies. Even I, as a conservative hawk, have worked for them during my career. (In my defense, it was an ideological grassroots organization that was getting conservative votes for candidates I already supported in the crucial 2024 elections.)   

Meanwhile, you have been quoted as saying, after the 2024 elections: “In terms of political spending, I’m going to do a lot less in the future. I think I’ve done enough.” And you only were active in campaigns for a handful of years.

If that is really your decision, then you will fail in your stated goals. Don’t get mad at me or anyone else for pointing this fact out. As I said before, the American system requires slow and steady funding and activity on your part. So, you need to put up, or shut up, if you want to achieve the changes you desire. One stint in government, running DOGE, and a couple of years of funding is simply not enough. Especially if you preemptively announce that you are cutting off the money spigot, just as you are getting started.  

And your more recent idea to create a third political party also will not work. The American system only has room for two political parties. That is because our system has districts — sometimes called states — that are won by an individual candidate with a plurality of the vote. So, two parties are favored. Plus, the titles of our political parties are not wedded strongly to one ideology or another, making them very flexible. Both the Republicans and Democrats have changed their ideologies over the years. And both have seen ideological groupings take control over them over the years. (See Soros, for example.) 

No, what you need to do is emulate your hated enemy, George Soros, and invest in one political party, over the long haul. Which party is up to you, but if your issue is deficits and the debt and cutting spending, then the Republicans make more sense as they already start off more inclined to do something about these problems. Meanwhile, the Democrats have yet to find a federal government program that they want to cut. (The Pentagon budget used to be the one exception, but now they put plenty of pork in that as well, as I know you know.)

Obviously, the bitter feud between you and the president is not an auspicious way to jumpstart a political career for you. But this is just another short-term issue. In less than four years, President Trump will be leaving office. Meanwhile, you have decades to push your ideology.

And another good step would be giving your phone to an assistant and having them control your tweets. Does George Soros tweet? No, he doesn’t. As I once channeled from the words of Abraham Lincoln, and now, let me repeat, again:

We all sometimes get a little too heated for our own good. There have been plenty of times I have done that, myself. But I have found that it is dangerous to write letters which can possibly be distorted. There are men on the constant watch for such things out of which to prejudice others against you.

If you want to be a “winner” in American politics/policy, you need to be smart and play in the long-term. That’s just how the game is played.  

Sincerely,
