Seth Meyers takes a closer look at Robert Mueller’s first charges in his investigation of the Trump campaign’s potential ties to Russia. Paul Manafort, George Papadopoulos, and Rick Gates were indicted..So far.
On Friday, before learning of the indictments, Trump hosted a Halloween trick or treat photo-op for children of the press corps, featuring insults of the children’s parents and an appraisal of one girl’s weight. Mercifully the event wasn’t held on Monday or it might have become unpleasant. Over the weekend, Trump and his allies, it is reported ‘flew into a (noticeably) unhinged frenzy.
As we enter a new phase of the Mueller investigation, Trump is striving to distract, as is Fox News which spent all day Monday debating the placement of cheese on a cheeseburger emoji. Truly. I think you’ll agree with Seth, there are a couple of other emojis that sum up this situation much better.
