To the editor:
We are well past that point at which it’s enough for an ex-president like Barack Obama to speak out against President Trump. Many more former leaders of our country should issue a joint statement to the world—more like an apology—for letting our very stable genius flourish. (“Welcome back, Barack. What took you so long?” column, May 13)
I propose that a letter by the following leaders from both parties be issued: all living ex-presidents and ex-vice presidents, former leaders in the House and Senate, retired judges, former military and intelligence agency leaders, ex-Cabinet secretaries and people who served in federal agencies and on commissions.
They should tell the world that this is not who we are, and the American people that this is not business as usual.

Note from KBJ: The elites didn't elect Donald Trump, Marc. We the people did. And we're going to re-elect him in November. Get aboard the Trump train, chump!
