They are trying to out crazy each other because that makes them the most trump like. It’s not enough to talk about banning books from public libraries, now you have to line them up and do a photo op with a flamethrower. It’s just more of that virtue signaling they constantly accuse everyone else of doing.
What fucking sucks is that, while it may (or may not) initially just be posturing, this signalling is normalizing the craziness among their base. A non-zero amount of people will see this and think, “Hey! That’s a good idea!” and replicate it.
