David Lynch Pens Response Letter to Donald Trump

Filmmaker David Lynch is trying to clarify a thing or two. Yeah, we know, not really something the auteur is usually known for with his creative endeavors, but this time it's important.

In a letter posted to his official Facebook page, Lynch clarified his previous comment about President Trump going down in history "as one of the greatest presidents in history" was taken out of context. The quote was lifted from an interview with The Guardian, which you can read here. In context.

Dear Mr. President,

This is David Lynch writing. I saw that you re-tweeted the Breitbart article with the heading – Director David Lynch: Trump 'Could Go Down as One of the Greatest Presidents in History.' I wish you and I could sit down and have a talk. This quote which has traveled around was taken a bit out of context and would need some explaining.

Unfortunately, if you continue as you have been, you will not have a chance to go down in history as a great president. This would be very sad it seems for you – and for the country. You are causing suffering and division.

It's not too late to turn the ship around. Point our ship toward a bright future for all. You can unite the country. Your soul will sing. Under great loving leadership, no one loses – everybody wins. It's something I hope you think about and take to heart. All you need to do is treat all the people as you would like to be treated.

Sincerely,

David Lynch
