Trump Week in Review

WEEK #58 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 2/16/18/ TO THURSDAY, 2/22/18

The highlight (rock bottom) of week #58 was a “listening session” at the Department of Education with survivors of school shootings and dead victims’ parents, with Trump holding a cheat sheet with tips for himself like “look concerned” and “I hear you” scrawled in Sharpie, then completely ignoring every suggestion put forth in this emotionally […]

WEEK #57 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 2/9/18/178 TO THURSDAY, 2/15/18

Week #57 of the Trump Era began miserably, and ended horribly. First we begin with a 6-hour shutdown of the government when Congress could not agree on a budget, then with a 2nd wife-beater resigning from Trump’s staff when White House speechwriter David Sorenson quit before even defending himself. We’ll just have to put him

WEEK #56 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 2/2/18 TO THURSDAY, 2/8/18

After every week in the Trump Era, Americans tell themselves “it can’t possibly get any worse,” and every new week Trump says “Here, hold my Diet Coke…” Trump was so angry that Democrats refused to applaud his State Of The Union Address that he accused them of (!) treason, then out of the blue he

WEEK #52 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 1/5/17 TO THURSDAY, 1/11/18

As we approach a full year of President Trump, the theme of week #52 seems to be either “Even for him …(insert your own least faves)” or “Welcome to the studio.” This week’s menu is rich in confusion, outrage and mental instability coming at us nonstop from all directions at 200MPH. As usual. We have

WEEK #32 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 8/25/17 TO THURSDAY, 8/31/17

Week #32 was dominated by a national disaster, and also a major hurricane that flooded Texas. On Friday Trump pardoned a convicted felon who ran a self-described “concentration camp” in Arizona where 160 people died, then (speaking of concentration camps and Nazis) announced the firing of the mysterious and controversial White House Advisor, Sebastian Gorka.

WEEK #19 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 5/26/17 TO THURSDAY, 6/1/17

Where to begin with Week #19 in Trumpistan? Even by Trumpian standards it was fast and infuriating. More incriminating revelations about Russiagate, international humiliation, disastrous decisions and the usual deluge of insane lying Tweets.  It started quietly enough on Friday, with Trump winding down his Ugly American Tour by attending the G7 meeting in Sicily,

WEEK #18 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 5/19/17 TO THURSDAY, 5/25/17

Week #18 found Washington DC uncharacteristically quiet. Not that Trump calmed down, mind you, he just took his show on the road for his first foreign trip as president, taking with him most of his slimy entourage. Only Mike Pence and Kellyanne Conway were left behind to run the country for 8 days, the nation

WEEK #17 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 5/12/17 TO THURSDAY, 5/18/17

It only seems like 17 years, but Week #17 of The Trump Era has come and gone, and it began with the president threatening his newly-fired FBI DirectorJames Comey not to speak out in public in case Trump “had tapes” of their private conversations. Comey responded by saying he would gladly testify before the Senate

WEEK #16 OF THE TRUMP ERA IN REVIEW, FRIDAY, 5/5/17 TO THURSDAY, 5/11/17

Ironically, Trump declared this week National Hurricane Awareness Week, then delivered several of his own. Week #16 kicked off with Trump unveiling his “Summer White House” in New Jersey, “The Trump National Bedminster.” Mara-A-Lago is closing for the season, so a Third Trump property now gets to earn income from accommodating the presidential retinue and
