More difficult than average. Guessing OUJ did if for me, but I should have recognized the first name of the author, the pattern QSIQ is distinctive.

Based on the responses guessed the 4th word, then just a matter of filling in...3 minutes.

Guessing NHJAKAJM solved it, at last.

Funny, I found joy in finishing the cryptogram.

3 minutes. Letter distribution was no help today.

A fairly hackneyed Hallmark sentiment - and one I strongly disagree with.

Took a couple of minutes... Most of them sound like they were made up by MARIANNE WILLIAMSON, All New Age Hot Air! LOL But fun to decipher! Even an airhead can be entertaining some times! But wouldn’t make a good president!

And Amy Klobuchar says, “I’m not going to make promises just to get elected?” What???? No chicken in every pot?????? Dang!!!!!! I don’t know who irritates me the most, but Biden, Bernie, and Pocahauntus are pretty irritating!!!!!

That dumbasS5 AOC hopefully won’t run for president once sh reaches puberty age!

I guess at author’s first name correctly, then guessed at which letter was “I” and flew from there.

What a trip. It took me 2.5 minutes.
