Trump’s Weird Weekend

President Trump’s actions over Memorial Day weekend served as a stark reminder of just how far he deviates from traditional presidential norms, Politico reports.

“But if we’re going to (rightly) hammer much of the media for failing to cover Biden’s decline when it was hiding in plain sight, it’s probably also incumbent on us to keep on pointing out that weekends like this are, in a different way, also unimaginably far from traditional presidential behavior. Equally, Trump has (very publicly) acted like this for years — and won reelection without softening his edges. And for plenty of his supporters, this bewildering, careening, no-holds-barred approach to the presidency is entirely the point. It’s certainly a spectacle.”
