What is this new trade deal with South Korea?  Good..bad?
It's basically the same as the one we've had since 2012, but now since it's Trump and not Obama, it's no longer a "job killer".   We upped the number of cars each US manufacturer can export from 25,000 to 50,000, but nobody ever hit the 25,000 threshold anyway.  Korean steel exports to the US are reduced 30%, with no tariff.   Not much else.

It does effectively bar South Korea from exporting pickup trucks to the US for another 20 years, so it has that going for it.

Read a weird article about that that the South Korean auto workers are upset about that, but Hyundai is the only Korean manufacturer with plans to market a truck, and they decided to build it in the US a couple years ago.  It looks like an old Subaru Brat.

 
it can get worse?

"[Hope Hicks is] the glue to the entire place," a White House source said. "She helps keep the White House from fracturing. I don't think people realize what's about to happen once she leaves."

 
The White House physician...

Donald J. Trump

I am pleased to announce that I intend to nominate highly respected Admiral Ronny L. Jackson, MD, as the new Secretary of Veterans Affairs....

She was a brunette and didn't "remind" him of Ivanka. Maybe he didn't want to bang her?

I see we're winning bigly

 
So, does Trump just keep hiring and firing people to distract from his otherwise ####ty presidency? What is up with all this turnover?
I think he's basically a panicky day trader/action junkie who just makes moves whenever things aren't going well for him, which is always, and that's pretty much it.

I was just starting to see articles about how nice it was to have a bit of a change of pace and a quiet week from Trump.  They must have gotten to him.

In this case, Shulkin is a paranoid lunatic who spent $190,000 on a door and had armed guards outside of his office to protect him from his own staff.  I'm with Trump on this firing.

Hope Hicks
The one that insisted Don Jr mails never would come out when writing a false explanation about the meeting about "adoptions"

Really?

 
I imagine Trump walking through the White House, poking his head into people's offices and saying, "Anyone want to be VA director?"

I mean, I'm generally for firing most of Trumps hires, because they were generally terrible hires on the first place. Unfortunately they may then be replaced with even more awful choices. 

 
I’m in a fog... wasn’t Jackson the guy that did his health report?
Yeah, he's been the official physician to Bush, Obama and Trump.  Apparently a well-respected doctor.  No idea if he has any policy experience whatsoever, but he's respected by both parties, and at least knows something about health care.   He's more qualified for this position than most of Trump's appointees.

Something's fishy here.

Trump isn’t 239 lbs.
