My Friend, Donald Trump

June 3, 2022 · 11:17 am ET · Leave a Comment

Bill Lueders: “Donald Trump writes to me often, usually several times a day. The president, as he calls himself—none of that ‘former’ business—wants me to know how much he values me as a ‘trusted ally.’ He is forever offering me exciting opportunities, like the chance for my name to be ‘permanently engraved’ on the ‘Official 2022 Trump Donor Wall’ in his office. All I need to do for this to happen is contribute $45 by midnight.”

“‘Space is extremely limited,’ the president warned. ‘This could be your only chance.'”

“President Trump is always looking out for me that way. He has told me countless times that I must act quickly because time is running out. He’s been saying that about the Donor Wall since he first brought it up, weeks ago. Since then, he’s given me a generous number of only chances.”
