Here comes Donald Trump’s ugliest week yet
This coming week should prove difficult for the star of the Trump show. Donald will be raging at the injustice of Stormy Daniels’ and Karen McDougal’s confessions. A good time will be had by every comedian, pundit, journalist and non-supporter, at Trump’s expense. Various reports suggest that he will also have to deal with his attorney Ty Cobb and White House Counsel Don McCahn, who may be leaving the White House soon. Perhaps they are fed up with the president and his unpredictability, or perhaps they are siding with Robert Mueller.
Serious discussions about tariffs will undoubtedly recommence. The greatest stock market, which Trump heralded as his personal world opinion poll when it was going up, has reversed itself. Last week’s record drops, attributed in part to the tariffs, have kept Trump abnormally quiet. Maybe he’s reconsidering.
The Mueller investigation continues. All leaked, released and reported details point to the Trump team and Russia cooperating and colluding during the election, followed by denials and coverups which will get everyone in deep trouble for obstruction of justice. The connection between Cambridge Analytica and the Trump campaign is obvious. Mueller just has to tie all those loose ends together and release the findings. Steve Bannon will very likely work something out with investigators.
Foreign relations are strained. Donald Trump’s unpredictability has most of the world concerned for its safety, except for Putin. The replacement National Security Adviser, John Bolton, has those who remember him from a prior administration very nervous. This week promises chaos even if nothing else comes to light. Stay tuned.
Each day: Show kindness, be grateful, learn something new, be moved to tears and make a difference.
