That is a bad letter: hyperbolic, bombastic, inelegant, pleonastic, and badly argued.

The letter, entertaining though it is, is too long.

If there are any words I used that you’re struggling to understand, just let me know and I’ll happily explain to you what they mean.

There was no need for the comma before 'and'.
That said, I don't agree with your appraisal of the letter. Unless you were rapping?

You may have very rational and thought out reasons for wanting him gone, but calling him a 'ginger gimp' does your argument no favours.
