Dear Donald,
I received your e-mail today, and I thank you for the kind invitation to be a part of Trump University. I understand that "in one intense week of live online action," you will "turn my life around."
I have received other solicitations to take part in live online action; and like yours, those offers extended early bird savings. None, though, said that I would save $581 by taking advantage of the early bird savings that ended August 31.
So that you are not offended by my rejection of your offer, please note that I did not even bother to respond to any of the other solicitations for "live online action."
Again, I appreciate your having thought of me. Might I suggest that you extend your invitation to someone who will need to make a career change, however? He comes highly recommended. In fact, I will include the recommendation from one of his previous employers: "Every now and again I'd ask him to write me a speech. He was very loyal. He was always on time. He always had on a suit and a starched white shirt." Former Edmond city manager Bill Dashner let that be known about his former intern, Michael Brown, who is now the top banana of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Mr. Brown, who got a law degree from Oklahoma City College, has previous management experience, having been in charge of the judges of the International Arabian Horse Association immediately prior to joining FEMA.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Bill
P.S. -- On a personal note, I have two sisters-in-law who are barbers. Call me. I can get you an appointment with one or the other.
