The Boy Scouts of America on Thursday apologized for President’s Trump’s politically-charged speech to kids at the youth organization’s annual gathering this week.
“I want to extend my sincere apologies to those in our Scouting family who were offended by the political rhetoric that was inserted into the jamboree. That was never our intent,” “Chief Scout Executive” Michael Surbaugh wrote on Scoutingwire.
“The invitation for the sitting U.S. President to visit the National Jamboree is a long-standing tradition that has been extended to the leader of our nation that has had a Jamboree during his term since 1937. It is in no way an endorsement of any person, party or policies. For years, people have called upon us to take a position on political issues, and we have steadfastly remained non-partisan and refused to comment on political matters.” “We sincerely regret that politics were inserted into the Scouting program.”
