Trump held a contest where the prize was a meal with the Leader of the Free World.

No one ever won it.

Here's the secret.

There's a huge difference between not speaking to people and saying a few words.

If someone says "hello" to you and you ignore them, they think you're snubbing them. If you just say "hello" back then they are usually satisfied.

Try timing your interactions. You'll find if you spend even 15 seconds talking to people they'll end the conversation themselves.

If nothing else, it's a completely idiotic idea.

Say there are 1 million government workers. If Muskie could read one letter a minute for ten hours a day, five days a week, it would only take him a year to get through the pile.

When Trump was involved in creating his book "The Art Of The Deal" he gave the farm away to the actual author. That guy got cover credit [unheard of] and half the profits [equally unlikely in the publishing world]

The author has spend decades telling people what an idiot Trump is.

imho people notice the problems; it's getting the people with power to care enough to do something about the problems.

First thing you learn in swimming rescue.

If you are trying to help a drowning victim and they grab on to you, push yourself deeper underwater. The victim will let go and keep trying to get to the air.
