Letter: How to solve the gridlock in Washington

A suggestion for the new Congress to bring about a cessation of the gridlock over the building of a great, expensive wall — unwanted by the majority of Americans, according to numerous polls.

The first bill enacted by the new Congress should be to classify as “non-essential” all workers in the White House who are, in fact, non-essential, such as cooks, meal planners and servers, housekeepers, maintenance workers, landscapers, etc.

Once Melania has to plan and prepare meals, make beds, clean toilets and rooms and do her own everyday housework, she'll get after her stubborn husband to begin to listen to the masses of people who are intelligent enough to realize that a large wall is not needed nor wanted by a majority of them.

If Donald's insistence is because he wants to fulfill a campaign promise, please inform him that he has already lost on that promise. Mexico is not going to pay for it, as he had promised.

John Schirack, Sandy
