I get your point and agree with it to an extent, but I'd argue that being a good neighbor is a good thing in a politician. Sure, you can be a total asshole and do an excellent job as governor or president or whatever, but being a nice person is kinda helpful.
By all means, lead with the important bits (which for the record I have looked into and mostly like) and include this on page 12, but that doesn't mean it's worthless.
EDIT: Apparently he was governor in 2019 so it is a little different than him just being a good neighbor, but I think my point still stands. It's a hell of a lot better news than "Old orange fascist quotes Hitler again"
