Mr. President,You’ve made it known — repeatedly, proudly, sometimes with the enthusiasm of a man announcing a new hotel — that you ended more wars than any president in modern history. You brought troops home. You did what leaders before you said was impossible. And you were right to be proud of that.

But there’s still one war America hasn’t stopped fighting.

Not in Afghanistan.

Not in Iraq.

Right here, in our own streets.

A war on American citizens — disguised as a “War on Drugs.”

The war that never ends

It began over 50 years ago, sold to the public as protection, morality, safety. Instead, it built the largest prison population in human history, militarized police, and handed the black market a license to print money. We didn’t eliminate drugs — we made them stronger, cheaper, and deadlier – basically the opposite of what we were told the goal was.

You’re a man who knows business. You understand supply, demand, and incentives. So you know this truth:

If you want to destroy black markets, you don’t fight them — you compete with them.Legally. Transparently. Without the cartel middlemen.

Alcohol prohibition proved it.The opioid crisis confirms it.History keeps leaving reminders. We just keep pretending not to see them.

If you really want to save American lives, end this war next

Every overdose isn’t just a tragedy — it’s a policy failure.

People don’t die because they use a substance. They die because they don’t know what’s in it. Because an unregulated product with mystery strength and unknown additives is the only option prohibition allows.

You could be the first President in history to say the quiet part out loud (and we all know how much you love doing that):

Drugs aren’t dangerous because they exist — they’re dangerous because we force them underground.

Legal markets test

.Black markets guess.

Humans pay the price.

You ended wars overseas. Now end the war at home.

You love metrics. Numbers. Achievements big enough to slap on a banner. So here’s one worth engraving in gold:

End the War on Drugs — save more American lives than every foreign conflict of the last half-century combined.

Ending the unsuccessful war on drugs wouldn’t simply bring troops home; it would directly save American lives. That’s legacy‐level.That’s Mount Rushmore-material.Nobel Peace Prize status It’s bigger than bringing soldiers home — it’s bringing freedom home. It’s stopping the Chinese and the cartels from waging a war they’re currently winning in America’s cities, towns, and streets.

Imagine seeing your name on the front of every major newspaper – for a good reason.

A final thought — or a challenge, depending how you take it

You’ve already proven you can end wars the swamp said were permanent. You can fight the system they built for themselves, not for us. This one is no different.In fact — it’s easier.You don’t need tanks, troops, or treaties.You just need to let adults make their own decisions about what goes into their bodies again – the way it’s been done for 99% of human history, and 80% of American history. You know, back when America was Great.

Mr. Trump,If you truly want peace, if you truly want to “Make America Great Again,” then finish the job.

End the last American war.

End the Drug War.

Signed,
