At this writing, no public or press events today on Pres Trump's schedule as he spends the weekend at his NJ golf club. He will have some fundraising events. By my count, it's his 21st visit to Bedminster and will bring his number of days there to 92.

INSTEAD OF WORKING THE CAPITOL to break the logjam, TRUMP is in his bubble, at his summer vacation home in Bedminster, while the people he ran against — lifelong politicians and a former Wall Street banker — flail at a compromise.
