President Trump made his first international trip as president in his 18th week in the White House, leaving his much-maligned 2018 budget and the Russia scandal in the jet fumes of Air Force One.
Not really. The clamor over Team Trump’s Kremlin connections reached a new fevered pitch after news reports of son-in-law Jared Kushner’s alleged attempts to set up secret, back-channel communications with the Russians before the new president took office.
So, expect to hear more of Trump-Russia-Putin-All-in-the-Family.
And the president’s back on Twitter, so there’s that.
Meanwhile, enjoy these takes on Trump’s 18th week, courtesy of editorial cartoonists from the U.S. and around the globe.
