Does anyone else wonder if Trump is behind the shooting of the two National Guard troops?
The shooting does offer him some level of pretext to flood DC with more troops.

Utility Shutoffs Surge as Americans Hit Lowest Level of Happiness on Record
BLACKPRESSUSA NEWSWIRE — America’s poorest families have long lived on the edge of darkness. Today, that edge is widening. Utility shutoffs are rising across the country as households buckle under soaring electric bills, mounting debt, and a level of financial despair that now mirrors what researchers describe as the lowest happiness rating ever recorded in the United States. The suffering is no longer hidden. It is the new face of life under the Trump administration.

I agree. It’s the only thing that explains Trump continual comments that defy logic
At this point, I wonder if he isn't lying when he says he has "my highest Poll Numbers, ever" since it's entirely possible that's what his aides are telling him. It's quite likely that there's an entire Potemkin village built around Trump right now.
