  Barack Obama would retreat alone to the Treaty Room on the second floor of the White House residence—not to plot strategies, not to take calls, but to handwrite personal letters to ten ordinary American citizens every single night, a practice he maintained with almost monastic devotion throughout all eight full years, personally selecting the letters himself from the 40,000 that arrived daily at the White House. Donald Trump posts hate and revenge against his enemies on Truth Social.
