The Economist is counting the days until President Donald Trumps second term is over.
In a blistering cover this week, the outlet portrayed a wounded and bandaged symbolic eagle under the headline Only 1,361 Days To Go.

That would be the amount of time left in Trumps presidency after his first 100 days is up at the end of the month. He has spent his first months dismantling government agencies, sparking a trade war, defying the courts over deportations and trying to strong-arm Ukraine into submitting to its invader, Russia.
The Economist summed up his strategy in the cover story, which examines the lasting harm he has already done:

That pretty much how I see this travesty.

(658 posts)Republicans, alt-right, far right, MAGA, has always been wrong, either with their predictions or statements of fact. Their policy ideas are failures, their governance are failures, and most of their businesses are failures mostly or wholly dependent on government business, hand outs or bail outs, and they're almost universally morally bankrupt.

Not that Obama would run, but he'd beat the orange turd handily.
