The past 72 hours from the Boy Scouts fiasco, to his rally attacking immigrants last night, to his anti-Trans tweets, are all about 2 things

Dis. Traction.

Distraction from WHAT ??

1. The past 72 hours are primarily about Trump wanting to rally his bigoted base at all costs. He wants them excited and ready to fight.

As a follower of Jesus breaks my heart the #evangelical church is being silent or supporting him.

He's doing exactly what they support

2. Secondarily, the past 72 hours from Trump are about his dangerous & desperate need for applause, chants, & affirmation. He lives for it.

IDEA: let's all ignore the Twit-In-Chief @POTUS. Stop reacting to his BS. Let the investigators investigate. Do your good work. #IgnorePOTUS

3. We have entered, it appears, a new phase of the Trump presidency that most closely resembles the lowest points of his campaign.

4. He will throw any of his peers under the bus. He will offend anyone if it gets him chants & applause. He will speak & act rashly.

5. Between the Boy Scouts speech and his tweets this morning, his speech last night has been lost. His most anti-immigrant speech ever.

I'm the wake of his anti-immigrant speech, can someone ask Donald Trump why Mar-a-lago filed 75 visas for foreign workers?

6. Having studied Trump for 2 years and written 100+ articles on him, my best guess is that right now Trump is LOVING LIFE and is very happy
