You’re right. We know how we are supposed to feel, and we know how to react. And if we don’t, there is something wrong with us that a speech from the President won’t fix. On the other hand when things are bad knowing we have a leader who is in charge is comforting, but a partisan rally won’t comfort us. It will just remind us why we are already angry.
Leadership - competence, at least - was needed at the level of local law enforcement before Jared-whatsis shot a dozen people. Unfortunately, it failed. Now we have the usual suspects looking to make political hay out of the injured and dead. Maybe it will be comforting to some of the victims’ families or friends, at least.
I’m going to check back later to see what Michelle was wearing. I hate myself sometimes ...
