From Jennifer Rubin's column today:
Quote:
The Boy Scouts and the Mexican government call him out for lying about phone calls that never happened. (But they were not lies, insisted Sarah Huckabee Sanders!)
Lawmakers have no time for his mean-spirited and economically disastrous plan to chop immigration numbers in half; they disregard his call to plunge back into health care.
Republicans tell him to stop berating the attorney general.
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev taunts Trump on his acquiescence to sanctions legislation: “The Trump administration has shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to Congress in the most humiliating way.”
The military shrugs when Trump tries to throw out transgender military personnel via a tweet; meeting participant(s) then leak about his petulant and ignorant rant in a strategy session about Afghanistan.
Throughout the executive branch, employees who recognize the extent of the Trump team’s recklessness and incompetence are more than willing to leak about it. So far we’ve seen State Department employees reveal gross mismanagement, Justice Department attorneys pull back the curtain on hostility to affirmative action and Environmental Protection Agency scientists denounce Trump’s embrace of anti-science myths (“Today the environmental field is suffering from the temporary triumph of myth over truth,” wrote Elizabeth Southerland, director of science and technology in the Office of Water, in her farewell letter. “The truth is there is NO war on coal, there is NO economic crisis caused by environmental protection, and climate change IS caused by man’s activities.”)

And the comment by the Russian PM is a killer (what does the PM do in Russia anyway, open doors for Putin?), a commie commenting on our democracy.
And to borrow Chick's line, "Are we winning yet"?
The bully in chief is losing his touch
