For the better part of the last week or so, Trump has been promising to visit Springfield, Ohio.
This is a monumentally bad idea.
Both the Republican governor of Ohio and mayor of Springfield have asked him not to come. Springfield’s resources are already overburdened and they’ve been relying on state high patrol to fill in gaps for every day police work. Couple that with recent failings of his secret service detail and it’s a recipe for one giant shit show. I really hope he stays away.
On top of all those concerns, Ohio isn’t a battleground state. His campaign could be better served by spending time elsewhere.
That said, as dumb and ill advised it is to go there, I fully expect him to do it. If, God forbid, something crazy happens when he’s there it won’t be because of some far left secret plan. He and his campaign fully know what the situation is.
