The Republicans often float outrageous intentions, with the objective of getting a rise out of us. The paving over of the Rose garden. The plans to put in a ballroom in the White House. [Added later: That wasn't just a taunt, they actually started doing it.] The idea of leaving the body of the latest victim of gun crimes to lie in state in the Capitol.
These all seem calculated to generally annoy those who oppose guns and oppose the MAGA crowd.
Well, I haven't been on these shores long enough to acquire any feelings of ownership of the various buildings in the vicinity of the Mall, so I'm less insulted than most others. They [MAGA] must regard this as retribution for the affront of having the body of Martin L. King lie in state in the Capitol. [Giving a non-white — or a woman — any sort of recognition gives some people acute indigestion.]
