    Can we stop posting this headline? Again and again and again?

    It’s not news.

    If a sizable portion of the population did want to do something stupid, that’d be news.

    This is… It’s not even propaganda. It’s just a waste of our limited time and emotional capacity for idiocy.

        Its noise. The media eats it up. Meanwhile the economy is tanking and government spending is worse than it is under most democratic presidents. It’s the Trump administration flak shield. It was tested last administration and it works very well unfortunately. Kick up enough dust around the well and people will talk about how bad the dust is instead of the fact that somebody just drank the well dry.
