Could people stop hyperventilating every time Trump does something stupid and odious that he is fiendishly deflecting from something else, also stupid and odious, he did? Because he’s not.
Â
a) Trump is lurching from crisis to crisis. He and he and his Administration are currently a raging dumpster fire.
Â
b) Deflecting from something horrible by doing something horrible is not a long-term strategy for success.
Â
c) Everything Trump does needs to be attacked. Attacking on one front doesn’t mean attacks on other fronts have stopped or lessened.
Â
d) Saying this is somehow a super-devious scheme on Trump’s part grants him way too much undeserved power.
Continue fighting, we’re winning.
