Their absence would speak volumes, but instead, they’re opting to uphold what’s about to be a meaningless tradition over making a principled stand. It’s a disappointing display of spinelessness across the board if you ask me.
And honestly? It’s just another reminder that humans never seem to learn from past mistakes. History has shown us time and again where this kind of complicity leads, yet here we are, once again, pretending like this time will be different.
I was raised by my parents to always believe in letting my yes mean yes and my no mean no, because it’s the foundation of integrity. To do otherwise is spineless and undermines trust. It’s just so frustrating to see so many people, especially those in leadership, abandoning that principle for the sake of appearances and tradition.
I swear, watching Obama grin and laugh with Trump is like watching a firefighter roast marshmallows over a house fire — completely insane and not the vibe anyone asked for.
ETA: No, I didn’t know that about Harris and Vance. Does it matter?

LMAO! All FACTS! Preach, CG!
Starting Monday, it’s back to folks slipping in that slick shit, mid-friendly conversation.
