I mean, we have limited insight, I think, into the political mindset that's at work, that's driven the Trump administration to do a lot of the things they're doing. I mean, do we know what benefit they see in arresting the drummer from the Milford High School band, right? The honor student high school junior on the volleyball team and locking him up?

Do we really understand what benefit they think that is to the United States of America? Do we know what benefit Trump sees for the nation in arresting the beloved John's Waffle and Pancake House waitress in Missouri? Do we know what benefit Trump sees in sending full battlefield combat gear, clueless HSI agents with grenades into a neighborhood restaurant in San Diego?

Do we know what benefit they think these things are to the country? For that matter, I mean, do we know why they think it's not a benefit to the country to have, I don't know, overnight meteorologist coverage in offices of the National Weather Service in the Midwest?

Why they think it's a benefit to the country to not have anyone available to answer the phone at the Social Security office?

Imagine if that's like what Trump rallies and Republican rallies had been like, right? Hey, vote for me, vote for us. We'll bring back measles. and AIDS. We're going to legalize machine guns.
