So, it looks like the President retweeted an opinion piece by Napolitano that calls the Federal actions in Portland unconstitutional. oops! ---

Even [better](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1288509568578777088) one out now: “I am happy to inform all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low income housing built in your neighborhood…” And yes, that is real. ---

I bet he retweeted it because he liked the image of the federal troops dominating a protestor. It hit his feed because the Washington Times is usually a reliable conservative rag. As for the article itself being counter to his actions, he probably didn’t notice because “words are hard”. ---

Some wag online noticed that Trump tends to end these tweets as if he were a server plunking down the fried-potato skins at Applebee’s. _Enjoy!_ ---

He believes that there really is something like a Suburban Lifestyle Dream that millions of people are experiencing. He lives in a '50s sitcom. He’s never been to a “suburb” in his life. ---

If this was a 50’s sitcom suburb, Trump would be trying to kick Ricky Ricardo out of it. ---

Trump is starting to get panicky about the election. He tweeted this, which normally staid and reserved NPR called “filled with inaccuracies”: > [@Dotard](#): > > With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote??? ---

So there you have it: this is the hand that Trump holds now. “The elections are a sham.” It’s now an open question of whether his allies will follow him down that path. ---
