The cost of being in Trump's crosshairs: Public humiliation

The Trump administration has rushed to execute its agenda and along the way has left a roadside trail of unsuspecting and in some cases, helpless casualties.

WASHINGTON — It’s not only that the Trump administration is firing government employees en masse, or trying to swallow up neighboring Canada, or squeezing Ukraine, a democratic nation fighting off Russia’s invasion.

For those in the crosshairs, no small part of the ordeal is the public humiliation they’ve endured. The new administration has been rushing to execute its agenda and along the way has left a roadside trail of unsuspecting and, in some cases, helpless casualties.
