99 DAYS AND COUNTING

Trump gave another bizarre interview, this time to Reuters. The takeaway? Trump wants a big beautiful war with North Korea, thinks being President should have been easier and that the media is mean to him.

Trump has failed to pass any significant legislation on Health Care, Tax Relief for the middle class, funding of his ridiculous wall, infrastructure investment or jobs, and after his Muslim Ban and the defunding of Sanctuary Cities was struck down in the Courts, Trump will sign a 1 week Continuing Resolution to keep the government from shutting down tonight. Now that’s change we can believe in!

With racism on the rise, investigations by the FBI, House Intelligence Committee, Senate Intelligence Committee and now the Inspector General at the Pentagon moving forward, Trump’s approval ratings are at historic lows for ANY President in modern history but hey we have GREAT TV this weekend!
