Not playing politics

The father of Jacob Blake, yet another US black man shot by police, says that he refuses to play politics over his son's shooting, and will not meet with Donald Trump during his visit to Kenosha, Wisconsin. And, in so doing, isn't he tacitly playing politics
?
In an interview with CNN, Mr Blake's father, Jacob Blake Sr, said his son's life was more important than a meeting with President Trump. "I'm not getting into politics. It's all about my son, man. It has nothing to do with a photo op," he said.
For his part, Trump had no intention of meeting with the Blake family anyway, because they wanted lawyers to be present.
Sounds nothing like politicking at all. (rolleyes)
