I consider any event where politicians show up with plastic smiles and cheesy quips to be "politicizing" in some way shape or form.

Even the President showing up and hosting a memorial is politicizing to some degree,

It's the nature of the game, I know, we expect the President to show up.. but everyone that followed on his heels with their plastic smiles and the "hey look I give a damn" attitude is politicizing purely. I'd say the same if it were Republicans that showed up or pulled this kind of stunt.

The President is responsible for the events he attends. That's that.
He's responsible for everything said around him,
at him,
by him,
whether he's even in the room or not while he's at an event..
It's totally UofA's fault, but because he was there, it's his fault too.
