Politico senior editor Michael Schaffer seems quite irked over Washington, D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser not publicly lambasting President Donald Trump after he ordered the federal takeover of the district's police department to combat the city's crime problem.Schaffer oddly suggests something is wrong with Bowser for not acting more confrontational. You can get a hint of that attitude from the title of his Wednesday article, "Donald Trump Took Over DC’s Police. Why Is the City’s Mayor So Zen?"Cooperation, in the mind of Schaffer, appears to be something that should be replaced by confrontation. Never mind that the goal should be to make the capital city safer for people. This was his opening sentence: "Muriel Bowser has given Donald Trump everything a blue-city mayor could possibly give a MAGA president. And he kicked her in the teeth anyway."
