R.P. McMurphy was Jack Nicholson’s character in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Seems appropriate since the world has gone nuts.

The Scorpion and the Frog
One day a scorpion was walking along and came to a stream. It wanted to cross it but knew that it could never swim that far. The scorpion then saw a frog and asked "Frog, can you carry me across the stream?" /1

This is quite a hed/subhed.
1) Start with Vance. Use strong action verb. Accept the autocratic premise that the “Marines’ Might” are Vance’s to flex.
2) Mention the protest second and absurdly describe them as in the thousands
3) Treat Trump’s strong man use of the military as a partisan scuffle.
