I read an interesting observation the other day which I’m passing along. Expect President Trump to move in two directions at the same time. He’s going to moderate his last executive order, the one governing immigrants from seven Middle Eastern countries being called the “Muslim ban” while simultaneously fulfilling more campaign promises that are sure to provoke outrage.
It’s called the “Dense-Pack” theory. The media only have a certain amount of bandwidth and they’ve just about reached their peak volume already. So expect more.
What? I have no idea. I admitted that I have no ability to predict what Trump is likely to do or how people will react more than a year ago.
The Trump admin are talking about a supreme court nominee, which might come later this week. If so, that is likely to be the next topic to dominate the news cycle.
BTW, this is pretty interesting:

The agreement with Saudi Arabia to create “safe zones” for Syrian refugees (what could go wrong?) seems to be the underreported story of the day.
Too many unresolved details for me to comment on it. It’s like that old wisecrack about everybody wanting to go to heaven but nobody wanting to die.
I think he answered this with the changes he made in NSC and putting Bannon in the driver’s seat! (reminds me of a shell game!)
