26. A moment to be truly Presidential, and Trump fluffed it.

Fri Sep 12, 2025, 11:02 PM

Sep 12

An event beyond politics happens, a time that requires a clear call for unity, and discuss how to make things better.
(Kirk's 'work' was never about politics, it was about pure hate, sprinkled in copious quantities in many directions.)

Instead, Trump stirs the pot, polarized people more.

But there will be an event where people come together to discuss the future, how to make things better, how to avoid the many mistakes of the past.
Trump's funeral.

Just when you think things can't get worse . . .
