When a dying 88yr old man drags himself into a public meeting with you, perhaps it’s because he has something very important to say. It would be prudent to listen to him
Imagining being such a tool that when an 88 year old man who has been sick for sometime dies after briefly meeting with you people still low key wonder if you killed him
