Distraction or not, Trump is a coward who thinks deploying soldiers at a protest will make him look tough. It doesn’t. It makes him look scared and pathetic.
Of all the things you could rightly criticize as cowardly actions, brazenly deploying a military force against a civilian population, is not among them.

It’s because he is. Him and most of his cronies are at a point where if they do not maintain power until they die, they may face extreme consequences.
The good thing is I guess they know that. The bad thing is, when it’s that or maintain power, what lengths will they go to?

Edit: It’s not bravery/cowardice, it’s arrogance.
Deploying it in Ukraine against Russia, or in Gaza against Israel would be brave.
Deploying it against his own civilians is cowardly.
Really? I’d consider that peak cowardice.
