January 26-28, 2018: Mueller, DACA and Black Unemployment in the News

 

1/26/18: The Big Topic on cable news is the “perjury trap” which it seems the president might step into if he talks to Robert Mueller. 

 

A good strategy for any crook. 

One right-wing thinker who is taking no chances regarding the perjury trap would be Patrick Buchanan. He warns that Trump must avoid the trap at all cost. “If the president's legal team lets Trump sit for hours answering Mueller’s agents, they should be disbarred for malpractice.” Yes. Trump should avoid answering questions. That is a good strategy, for any crook.





1/27/18: Trump insists Democrats don’t want a DACA deal to protect the Dreamers. These are the 800,000 young undocumented men and women who were perfectly safe under an Obama-era executive order. That order, of course, was terminated five months ago by Donald J. Trump. 

Also, Trump insists Democrats want millions of murderers to storm across the border to kill red-blooded white Americans wearing $19.95 MAGA hats. 

Finally, he wants Congress to set aside $25 billion to build a wall along the border with Mexico.

1/28/18: The president devotes part of his day to arguing with the rapper Jay-Z on Twitter. Who could make this up! Trump wants all the credit for the lowest “Black Unemployment” levels ever recorded. 

This chart, published by FactCheck, shows who gets most credit for the decline since 2009, after the economy crashed under President George W. Bush. Hint: that individual’s initials would be B. O.
