Dear Mr. Trump,

For someone so concerned about alleged corruption in Ukraine, you really don’t know any of the people who were charged with implementing your policies?

Who’s Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman? The Ukrainian expert on the National Security Council. There’s probably no one more crucial in supporting our national security through our ally, Ukraine. Your people – that sorry group of Republicans in Congress – try to tarnish him as an immigrant.

Who’s William Taylor, you ask? The person you appointed to represent the United States in Ukraine. He knew what you were doing was wrong.

Who’s Gordon Sondand, you ask? Only the man who contributed $1,000,000 to your inaugural and who, among other things, called you from a Ukraine restaurant to satisfy your hunger for news about how Ukraine would help you undermine an American political opponent. Now, he admits that, of course, there was a quid pro quo. So you “hardly know him”? That’s so ridiculous as to be impeachable by itself.

Who’s Rudy Giuliani? You really don’t know? He’s your lawyer, the one you charged to accomplish the bribery scheme, your trade of US support to fight Russia in return for a political favor, the effort to tarnish Joe Biden and his family.

Who’s Marie Yavonovich? The former US Ambassador to Ukraine, the one you bad-mouthed, the one you threatened, the one who was actually concerned with helping Ukraine fight real corruption, the one who visited the front lines of Ukraine’s was with Russian aggression 10 times, and whom you mistreated in your typical, callous way. She’s an American hero. You’re an American thug.

When the history books are written about this shameful period of America’s history, you will be regarded as the worst traitor the United States has ever known.

Very truly yours,

Bruce J. Berger
