It was a very stupid thing to say, but he is human and humans say very stupid things.
The important thing is he apologized… I love that our president will admit to his mistakes.
I thought it went okay. It wasn’t mind-blowing, but he was strong. I remember thinking that he really is treated more like a celebrity and seems way more approachable and accessible than any other president I’ve seen. The ‘mystery’ of the president seems to be absent and what we seem to have now is someone who’s practical, thoughtful when he speaks, humble and accountable. It was just an interesting venue to see him in.
I heard at least a few recycled campaign trail speech bits, but I think we got a chance to see a little more of his exceptionally dry sense of humor, which I appreciate.
