Nobody tell the MAGA folks that while Trump is protecting the Lincoln Memorial, a bunch of confederate monuments are falling.

1/
In Birmingham, Alabama...



2/
And also in Birmingham... the ex-Hillary campaign staffer turned mayor, Randall Woodfin, had a far larger obelisk pulled down.

3/
And Rocky Mount, North Carolina, just voted to remove another...

4/

And Alexandria, Virginia, took down another...

5/
And Norfolk, Virginia, has begun the process to take down another...

It could be down by early August.

6/
So, let’s just let the MAGA crowd celebrate troops guarding a statue of Abe Lincoln while we tear down a bunch of Confederate statues.

Ya gotta admit, that’s some Grade A ironic comedy.

Pretty remarkable to watch the Times defend the virtue of publishing an op-ed about urban policing from a man who:

- has no law enforcement experience
- represents a state with no large cities
- is not a resident of an area affected

So, an unqualified opinion from a spectator.
Seriously, if you applied the simplest of litmus tests - what credentials does this person have to speak on this topic? - there is nothing whatsoever in Tom Cotton’s portfolio of life experiences that qualifies him on *any* of the core issues here.

He’s a guy with an opinion.
It’s just remarkable that out of the 317 million Americans the Times could have chosen to offer column inches, they picked a guy with an agenda but no expertise.

An inexpert advocate on an issue where there is no shortage of *expert advocates*.

A buffoon in a field of experts.

“People liked my walk!”

This morning, Trump was feeling his oats. He was on a high. The leaking bucket of his broken self esteem was briefly full and he felt *good*.

He was strong and powerful and admired!

1/
I absolutely hate when he’s in that place. A confident, surging Trump is aggressive and proactive. He pushes ahead on more and worse.

Now, a mere 12 hours later, he’s up past his bedtime trying to talk people out of criticism.

2/
That is the very opposite place.

He’s trying to get out from under people looking at him badly.

That slows him down, stunts his confidence.

He went from a high to coming down in a few hours. That’s wounding.

He felt invulnerable this morning. He’s tumbling now.

Per a thread yesterday, narcissists cannot think beyond their own actions.

They can’t process that their action will beget a reaction...

and they’re often shocked when what they thought was a very clear action produced a very unwelcome reaction.

1/
Last night, all Trump was thinking about and wanted was a masturbatory display to soothe his humiliation over running to his bunker.

So, he had his flunkies rough up protestors so he could do his stupid strut across the street.

2/
But now he has awoken the sleeping giant and crowds are getting bigger.

And now he is in a really bad spot.

He is taking heat for last night’s stunt already... and with a bigger crowd, the optics would be even worse.

He’s trapped.
