26. Biden is being kind, I think.

He defaults to kindness, even when dealing with adversaries.

We know the character Trump displays in public. I think "generous" is Biden's kind words on the letter. He did note that he wanted to talk to Trump before releasing the contents of the letter. Which makes me very curious as to what Trump said. (or one of his staffers wrote that Trump signed, which we've seen before from him)
