    This isn’t hindsight. People were worried he’d politicize the event from the beginning. If he turned over a new leaf and surprised us all by respecting the solemnity of the cemetery, oh well, you’ve sent a couple extra staff out to waste some time for a contingency that didn’t come to pass.

    Saying “you should be able to trust a former president” just completely ignores that this particular former president is well known and doesn’t care about rules. He literally incited an insurrection and then sat back and watched. There’s no excuse to be surprised by Trump at this point.
