WASHINGTON — Ronald Reagan probably didn’t realize he was starting a tradition when he wrote a note congratulating his successor and left it in the Oval Office desk drawer after two terms as president.
He did that for George H.W. Bush, his successor and vice president of eight years. Bush did the same for Bill Clinton, who left a note for Bush’s son George W. The younger Bush left behind written words for Barack Obama, who later put pen to paper for Donald Trump. Trump curiously continued this rite of presidential passage by writing a letter to Joe Biden, even as he opted out of other traditions, such as attending Biden’s inauguration.

I didn't realize that Reagan started this tradition. By the way, Biden did not write this letter.

The Trumpster knows that Biden cannot read. And, even if someone read a note to Bidenmoron, he wouldn’t understand.
Shove it up your Dorkbamanole, oh lowly and no longer even listened to pretend journalist.
