Mr. Trump, I did not vote for you, I do not like you. I am frightened for the my country under your erratic leadership. That said, I am asking you to fulfill one of your promises. I know your promises are not worth a hill of beans, but this one involves someone you respect.

You promised to end the American Empire's NATO lead conflict with Russia on day one. Please do that. Russia can have the territory they now control. Zelensky can seek exile. You can assure Putin that Ukraine will never be allowed to join NATO while you are breathing, and that America will stop providing potentially offensive weapons, as Putin have very reasonably objected to. America will lift the sanctions which have little effect anyway. And you can promise that America will rebuild the Nordstream pipeline that America destroyed on Biden's watch.

Once upon a time, this would have freaked out Republicans, but they are firmly under your spell. Once upon a time, Democrats were the antiwar party, but now they will scream about National Security and the danger to Poland. Although you did not exactly stare down the Military Industrial complex in your first term, you at least tried. Now is the time to end their reign of terror. The American people easily bought into the propaganda about the necessity of stopping the mad man Putin after instigating the conflict via the issue of Ukraine's potential NATO membership. You can easily turn this around by reminding America that we do not need to create or continue conflicts on the other side of the world. And you can point out that the war is already over, Ukraine has no chance of pushing Russia out of Ukraine. The people of both parties understand this, it is an easy argument to make.

The American Empire is continuing the nuclear arms race, despite the real possibility of a planed or accidental nuclear attack. A full nuclear exchange has the potential to end life on earth. Elon Musk is not ready to host you on Mars. Since you are best friends with Putin, why don't you take the time to really establish a legacy, by reducing or removing nuclear weapons? Only two Presidents were brave enough to tackle this issue, John F Kennedy and Ronald Reagan. Join them. The American people will be with you on this issue.

You must avoid hiring Neocons like John Bolton, Victoria Nuland, Mike Pompeo and the like.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
