Trump slinking off tomorrow to Mar-A-Lago

On a Monday !? Is there a US holiday in the calendar I'm not aware of?

"Mission Accomplished !"

With all the incorrect capitalisations, definitely one of his.

Felt sorry for Maddow last night...and what a bizarre performance from Trump !

I've been fortunate recently to have the opportunity to stay up late and watch the occasional RM show (2.a.m. start here in the UK !) I can't bear the other U.S news shows, the endless panels and speculation and so on. You could tell she was upset that instead of an hour of factual reporting she had to present 45 minutes of speculation, complete with pointless live shots of Damascus in the dark.

Not only that, but 10 minutes of live BLOTUS too. What were those odd sounds he was making last night? Didn't sound like sniffing, more like he was gasping for air ! This was particularly inappropriate when he talking about the chemical attack and the Syrian people fighting to breathe - followed by a noise that sounded like he was trying to give an impression of what that might sound like.

He'd obviously been told to rein in the hand waving-while he spoke, but couldn't quite manage it - and what was with him turning to his left halfway through his speech. Had the teleprompter in front of him broken down. Maybe he switched to 'rally mode' by mistake. Whatever it was, not a good look for someone who is supposed to be addressing the nation !

Ol' Gin Blossoms is back...

Back in the West Wing, trying to scupper the Mueller investigation.
