Whether for show or not, the toddler administration was on full display. Big lies, petulance…about all that was missing was a threat to hold his breath until he turned blue. Meanwhile, the shutdown is causing real pain and having real effects.

Just a thought, but if I was negotiating, I’d offer to appropriate however much money it takes to make a state visit to Mexico. Trump could do his song, pout, and dance there.

I’m also wondering if this is both a pathetic, craven suck up to Limbaugh, Coulter, et al, but also an attempt to distract from what’s likely to be a pretty damning Mueller report.

Maybe he’s running out of cards to play. One can hope.
