Libraries and democracy. Both good ideas.

Should we give Team Trump more credit?

What if these error-filled and spurious lawsuits are not a result of incompetence? What if they are the plan?

Team Trump excels in using the media to share and amplify a message to their base. So the storyline they get? They — judges, elites — won’t even hear us out!

That storyline brings agitation, violence, voters — often impoverished, rural, white — who have felt outside the system for years.

It is giving them a way in.

They won’t even hear us!

Judges all over the country won’t even listen. And that — repeated over and over by every media outlet no matter it’s ideological leanings — becomes a call to action. With a gravitational center that pulls GOPers who want to stay in power and fringe activists who want to be the star in a heroic patriot play.

I worry we are underestimating again.
