In two successive Hurricane Harvey photo ops at Camp David this week, Donald Trump wore baseball caps emblazoned with ‘USA' on the front and ‘Trump' on the back that he's selling for $40 on his campaign website.
As the NYT stated so succinctly: “Mr. Trump, we are reminded every day in ways we would not have imagined the day before, speaks and acts in the interests of himself and no one else.”
