11/ for a moment within an amazing life. Why? It won’t make them any taller. We all make mistakes. Perhaps Will Smith will become a vessel of love someday. That will require the humility to understand that he will be a student before he is a teacher. — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
10/ are sick of living in a world of bullies and are cheering someone for taking a stand and defending someone they love. I’m talking about the people that seem to have such a bloodlust to destroy a man’s entire life over a slap. I mean the people who want to tear Will Smith down — PolitiTweet.org

9/ love without forgiveness. The society that absents these things is a small and dark place where joy is hard to come by. It is the reaction to this that troubles me the most. That is what opens the windows into 2022 America and I’m not talking about the misguided people who — PolitiTweet.org

8/ No one should want to live in a society where a persons worst moment is what defines them. That is a cruel place. The type without redemption and forgiveness. The type without the hope that forgiveness and redemption can bring. There is no forgiveness without love and no — PolitiTweet.org

7/ different ways and most of those aren’t particularly great for anyone. Will Smith will make amends because that seems like the type of man he is. We live in a cancerous culture where there is fury all around us but also in a beautiful one where there is love all around us. — PolitiTweet.org

6/ That that little boy went on to become one of the most successful people in the world doesn’t matter. It’s hard to outrun forever. There are a lot of American kids in that position right now, this very second. They’ll carry it also and the pain will manifest itself in myriad — PolitiTweet.org

5/ that is condemning him in spasms of righteous fury is the only irredeemable actor in this whole sorry tale. Will Smith is a remarkable actor. Last night the mask dropped and we all got to see what systemic violence against women does to a nine year old little boy who sees it. — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
4/his crisis team tells him the important thing for him to remember is that his character won’t be defined by the slap. It will be defined by what he does next. That is the test Will Smith must answer. I hope he does. Will Smith deserves some grace because lord knows, the mob — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
3/Yet, despite all of that the defining moment of his life is his feeling of cowardice when his father punched his mother in the face when he was nine years old. Will Smith didn’t kill anyone. He lost control. It was a terrible mistake and it will cost him a lot. No matter what — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
2/Think about Will Smiths staggering achievements. He is self made. He has been in the public eye for a very long time and led an exemplary public life. He became one of the very best in the world at his chosen craft and it helped him pursuit happiness and live the American dream — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Rock is a genius who punched down and shouldn’t have because genius doesn’t have to. It should lift up not put down. It should point out not stigmatize. Will Smith made the biggest mistake of his life at an hour of his greatest achievement. We are all works in progress. — PolitiTweet.org

5/ of vital information are buried in the haystack. — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
4/ in the UK and the United States cover that? I have a strong suspicion the world would know a lot about a meaningless error and very little about the substance of the Atlantic Charter that was signed there. It is the unimportant that is considered news today while the details — PolitiTweet.org

3/,excited as a school boy. He was looking for his first glimpse of the Stars and Stripes. Suddenly the shipped turned HARD to port. (Left) They we’re an hour early and the pomp of the arrival would have to be reset because of the time Gaffe. Today, how would the political press — PolitiTweet.org

2/ Every detail was exactly planned and choreographed for the moment when the PM would arrive aboard the Battleship Prince of Wales. Every detail except one. Somebody forgot to account for the time change on the British side. Churchill was outside and described to be as — PolitiTweet.org

True story. Read more about this in Nigel Hamilton’s FDR Commander in Chief Trilogy. FDR awaited the arrival of Winston Churchill aboard the heavy Cruiser USS Augusta anchored in Placentia Bay, Newfoundland for what would be one of the most consequential meetings in history. — PolitiTweet.org

There is no human impulse that is more dangerous. Understanding this is essential to comprehending so much evil in the world. — PolitiTweet.org

control and committed a crime. The crowd cheered a crime because it also lost control. There is a difference though. The loss of control by the crowd was caused by a surrender of individualism and agency to the false comfort of belonging. There is no blanket that is warmer. — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
it’s probably time to think again because you are all the same people. That doesn’t necessarily mean bad people. It just means people who aren’t strong enough to pull against the tide and go against the group. It’s one of the hardest things in the world to do. Will Smith lost — PolitiTweet.org

worth hundreds of millions of dollars assaulted a comic on national television and then gave a speech where he talked about being a “vessel for love”? If you did and you think you are better than the school teacher at a MAGA event or the retiree in the villages watching Tucker. — PolitiTweet.org

Truth and lies. Do you want to understand how Putin can successfully tell his people that he sent the Russian Army to Ukraine, a nation with a Jewish President whose family was wiped out in the Holocaust, to fight Nazis? Simple. Did you stand up and cheer when a movie star — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
Pull to conform to what is happening around you is a powerful tide. Applause for assault in a tuxedo in California is the same as applause for assault while wearing a red hat in Alabama. That was a crime. There was no virtue attached to it. None whatsoever. — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
The Oscars have demonstrated the power of group psychology. The room is a hermetically sealed bubble where all mores can be eradicated in a second. Do you want to understand how Trump happened? Watch the Oscars and the crowd reaction. The pull to belong is very powerful. The — PolitiTweet.org

Towards being able to distinguish between what is consequential and what isn’t. Per usual the consequential part is hard to find in the cotton candy stupidity of the coverage of the inconsequential — PolitiTweet.org

Trumps genius quote to fully settle. It will take a little more time for the festering disgrace of Putin’s propaganda to disappear from Fox News at night. It will take just a bit more time for many in the Political media to understand the world they are living in. That is key — PolitiTweet.org

beginning. It will end the age idiocy in this country but not just yet. It will take a little more time for the American mind to connect the dead Ukrainian babies to Trumps shakedown and GOP perfidy in abiding it. It will take a little more time and more images of suffering for — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
American resolve is the deterrence to Putin’s aggression. Poland doesn’t need any tutorials on Russian malice. Biden committed American policy to a long struggle that will pass through Democratic and Republican administrations and last for years if not decades. It is just now — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
A new era of history began in Warsaw with the Presidents words. Ignore the stupidity of the coverage around the Putin quote. It is meaningless. A giant crowd came to hear the words of an American President because those people in the crowd know their future is shaped by them. — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
Ronald Reagan was broadly criticized when he called the Soviet Union “the evil empire”and predicted it would fall. He was right. This war can’t and won’t expand outside of Ukraine if Ukraine wins the war. The greater the disaster for Russia, the greater the disaster for Putin — PolitiTweet.org
Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES
There should have been no walk back from the White House on the Presidents comment. There is a difference between WON’T and CAN’T in the ENGLISH LANGUAGE. He didn’t say won’t. He said can’t and he said it as a feeling not an announcement of policy or a change of policy. — PolitiTweet.org
