73. I remember that encounter with the pastor in Detroit.

May 2020

He went off topic in his campaign speech and she confronted him in a firm, no nonsense way. She was not rude, just very firm. He backed down so fast it would make your head spin. So yes, I remember that day. I also remember how I cheered when she did that.

Everyone should have taken note that day. The way to get him to back off is to confront him and do not let up. He will fold like a house of cards.
