Actor Kelsey Grammer: A Unified Concept
In a recent conversation, Kelsey Grammer joined Jesse Watters to discuss the symbolism of the Reflecting Pool, likening it to a mirror reflecting America’s history and culture. Grammer expressed concern about what he described as a “virus” of hate that aims to “destroy things,” while he praised President Trump’s efforts in recovery. He stressed the significance of honoring America’s past and future, advocating for patriotism, and pointed to the “Patriot War” series on Fox Nation as a way to do so.
Grammer’s remarks come amid criticism regarding Trump’s $14.8 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which faced scrutiny for issues like algae and peeling paint. In response to this controversy, he remarked that a very small group of people might be driven by hate and desire to cause destruction. “I pray for them,” he added, expressing a hope for wisdom among those leading the country.
The recent focus on renovations coincides with the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where soccer fans from around the globe are visiting the U.S. and sharing positive impressions about the country. Grammer wishes for more Americans to embrace this positivity. “It’s worth loving; it’s great to have the chance to see it,” he noted, suggesting the pride felt when European and South American visitors share their thoughts about the nation.
Looking ahead, Grammer mentioned his plans to celebrate the 250th anniversary of America’s founding in Washington, D.C. He expressed a desire to be surrounded by family for the celebrations and reflected on his hopes for the country’s future beyond that milestone.
The actor also discussed his venture into creating a nonprofit organization, “American Revelation,” aimed at fostering patriotism among Americans. “We want to guide you to a place where you truly love your country,” he explained, emphasizing its importance to him. Grammer shared that he often finds himself emotional when discussing America, as significant figures in his upbringing inspired a deep respect for the nation.
Grammer credited his grandparents for instilling in him a love for the country, particularly highlighting his grandfather’s service in World War II. He reflected on the influence of great educators in his life, who made historical figures feel accessible, which has left a lasting impression on him. “I want to give back to them,” he remarked, expressing gratitude for their sacrifices.
Grammer will host “The Patriot War,” a six-part series on Fox Nation exploring key figures from the Revolutionary War. He conveyed his satisfaction with the project, noting, “I think we’ve done a great job following their passion and dedication to provide better opportunities for the world.”
