Trump is behaving as a madman. The rant on shoplifting, while not up there with wanting to execute the general, is odd enough. There is justification for police or citizens using firearms to fend off looting mobs or resist armed robbers, but ordinary shoplifters can and should be handled in other ways. Besides policing streets and catching thieves are jobs for state and local governments, not the feds. Of course Trump probably does not have much or any understanding of how federalism works in this country. At least we sometimes get something of a lighter sort from our public servants. After Representative Bowman disrupted the activities of the congress with a false and illegal report of a fire, the best excuse he could come up with was that he is too stupid to tell the difference between a fire alarm and a door knob. That is good stuff and offers another worthy candidate for the hotly contested title of dumbest member of congress.
