  • 10/11 -Three federal judges issue injunctions against Trump's new green card policies.
  • 10/11 - Kevin McAleenan resignsAnother one bites the dust. The revolving door continues at DHS. We will now get a new acting secretary to replace the old acting secretary. 
  • Does Trump not realize that the more he disparages the media, the harder they will work to find dirt on him and the administration? Even fair and objective media members do not appreciate being called fake, dishonest, and corrupt
  • Trump's abandonment of the Kurds has turned into a cluster fuck. Armed conflict all along the Turkey-Syria border. The Syrian Kurds are now aligned with Assad, Russia, and Iran. All enemies of the US.

  • Trump announces that the 2020 G7 meeting will be held at his Trump Doral resort. Then after criticism from almost everybody decides that is a bad idea. Flip-flop Trump.
  • 10/21 - Trump's best buddy Benjamin Netanyahu fails to form a new government in Israel despite Trump's help and endorsement.
