The women's march is coming back to DC this Saturday. On Monday, Martin Luther King Day, gun rights advocates are descending on Richmond, Va. The governor of Virginia has declared a state of emergency.
The president has the Third Infantry Regiment, which is best known for looking after the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery but is also available to help put down civil disturbances (in other words, when they're not marching around in very crisp uniforms, they're riot police). So where will President Trump send them? If Governor Northam asks for help, will the president say, Sorry, I need them to protect the White House from the women?
Meanwhile, of course, impeachment marches on; and it now appears that the president may have sponsored a plot to assassinate a U.S. ambassador. Come to think of it, a woman. Do you suppose Mr. Trump has a problem with women?
The old Chinese curse: May you live in interesting times.
