I don't think you need to think there will be long term shifts in Trump's policies or behavior (there won't be) to enjoy what just happened, sometimes it's good to enjoy things that are funny in the moment

A 14-word replacement for most op-eds, substacks, etc about this moment.
The GOP could stop ALL of this, right now—if a handful of Sens or Reps could step outside the cult.
It would take four in the Senate, four (maybe five) in the House, to change history.
Until then, they're all to blame.

Remember April 2009 when about 250,000 people took to America’s streets in Tea Party rallies and the media was like “oh man, the Dems are in trouble?” Approximately 28X as many people took to the streets to protest Trump yesterday. Didn’t even make the NYT front page.
In April of 2009 I observed the Tea Party rally in Salem. As this front page story says, there were a couple hundred people there. This past weekend in Salem there were roughly 2-3000 people at the Hands Off rally. Yet the Tea Party coverage seemed to take that event far more seriously.

It simply should not be possible for the president to repeatedly claim that a major city is burning without a wall of live standups happening in that city clearly demonstrating that it is not

On the ICE shooting.
1. It's terrible.
2. Too many disturbed people have access to too many guns in this country.
3. Too many political figures use incendiary and dehumanizing rhetoric. By far the most significant of them is the president. The fish of political violence rots from the head down.

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.

Parents, be vigilant against PragerU instructional materials in your kids classrooms! It’s an extremist outfit masquerading as an educational nonprofit. It’s a far right wing response to PBS kid’s programming, it is propaganda designed to appeal to children and careless or bigoted educators. Beware!
