What makes A more stable than D? Isn't D aromatic while A is not?

Note for OP
+solved @user1 @user2... to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.and yeah i confirmed that D is planar
tropylium ion
it is aromatic
no way 4 methyl groups on A overwhelm the aromaticity of D?
A seems anti-aromatic too, unless it twists out of plane or something
bro, when H+ is removed, anion is formed not cation
so A has 6 pi electrons after H+ removal while D has 8pi electrons

my bad im high
this is not the first time ive done that exact mistake
whoopsies
