Day 142:
Shit just keeps getting worse:
Trump keeps pretending like everything is fine. His infrastructure plan is really a give away to the rich (who could have guessed!). There is a very real chance he wont be president for the entire term at this point. Meanwhile nothing good is getting done, and the american people still suffer.
