Trump seeks to head off Republican fury to prevent another disastrous week
President Donald Trump is taking several steps to placate angry Republicans after a disastrous run which saw his impeachment defense shredded by current and ex-officials and, most stunningly, by his own acting White House chief of staff....
Every Monday over the month since House Speaker Nancy Pelosi initiated an impeachment inquiry, it seemed like life could not get much worse for an increasingly isolated President.
Yet every week it does.
At times, as his simmering fury bursts open in meetings or on Twitter, and as new political conflagrations take hold, it looks like Trump's presidency is unraveling. And, perhaps worse, a hollowed out White House can't cope with the incoming fire.
The signs are not great that things will improve for Trump in the week ahead....
