What Will Trump Do Over the Next Four Weeks?

October 8, 2018 · 8:52 am ET · Leave a Comment

First Read: “A surprising development in the Kavanaugh-Ford story was how it overshadowed President Trump. Yes, he mocked Ford, and he gave that bizarre, hour-long news conference at the UN. But he wasn’t the main story — the way he’s been most of his nearly two years in office. Remember this about 2016: Not only did Hillary-Comey dominate the last two weeks of that presidential election, but it also coincided with Trump being incredibly disciplined during that stretch. Can he do it again?”
