I saw an article out there on the interwebs saying that Kirk Schulz is going to American Samoa with Jack Thompson later in August. Thompson's thoughts?
"President Schulz was only on the job a handful of months when the situation last year unfolded. Rather than put it in the rear-view mirror and forget it as an unforeseen hurdle distracting from his broader mission, he's leaning in," Thompson said. "That speaks volumes about what kind of man Kirk Schulz is. That is major. Magnanimous is a word that comes to mind."
It's obvious that even Schulz knows that he didn't handle the situation as well as he could and I'm glad to see that rather than pretend like it didn't happen, he wants to reach out to the people in American Samoa and work on the relationship. I've heard that his wife is kind of a pain in the tail, but I've never heard anything but good things about Schulz himself. Sounds like Thompson is back on Schulz's side again instead of opposing him.
