A Monumental Day

I was traveling on an overseas trip most of Wednesday so my internet access has been limited on arguably one of the worst days of Donald Trump's life so far. The aftershocks of the Michael Cohen guilty plea have rocked Washington for the past twenty-four hours.

There are literally thousands of excellent articles online right now about this, so I'll post just a single link to a short piece in the New Yorker that provides a great overview of the greatest peril facing Trump as of this minute (link here).

The bottom line is simple: this is a fatal blow to Trump's presidency. It won't end tomorrow but it almost certainly will end no later than January 20, 2021. He will have no second term and may not finish his first. Stay tuned.
