This is actually true. Rarely if ever has any administration been the target of corruption investigations so early on! Rarely if ever has any administration had exactly zero legislative success with its own party in charge of the Congress! Rarely if ever has any administration had their hands tied on foreign affairs by near unanimous approval in the Congress. Rarely if ever has any administration had such low approval ratings after just 200 days.

Narcissist-in-Chief
Twice a day since the beginning of the Trump administration, a special folder is prepared for the president. The first document is prepared around 9:30 a.m. and the follow-up, around 4:30 p.m. Former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and former Press Secretary Sean Spicer both wanted the privilege of delivering the 20-to-25-page packet to President Trump personally, White House sources say.
These sensitive papers, described to VICE News by three current and former White House officials, don’t contain top-secret intelligence or updates on legislative initiatives. Instead, the folders are filled with screenshots of positive cable news chyrons (those lower-third headlines and crawls), admiring tweets, transcripts of fawning TV interviews, praise-filled news stories, and sometimes just pictures of Trump on TV looking powerful.

He's the 'Two Minute Man' according to staffers in the West Wing, anything over a half page of text and the Whiner in Chief's eyes glaze over.
After eight years of adult supervision in the WH, we've come to this?

Now he's saber rattling against North Korea. He's going to get us into a nasty war. Sigh.

Will this world be as lucky as it was 56 years ago? Perhaps it is high time to drink my Trockenbeerenauslesen (vintage 1971, 1973 and 1976) NOW.

When I lived there, the 1976 was considered one of the best vintages ever for German wines. As wonderful as a good Trockenbeerenauslese is, a little goes a very long way. It's almost like drinking honey. A half bottle is enough for 4-5 people after dinner.
BTW, I just checked pricing for a couple of TBA on the Google machine. It's worth thousands of dollars per bottle.
