Here in the Northeast, August is usually the hottest and most humid month. It will be again this year for Donald Trump as he heads for his extended "working" (i.e. golf) vacation in Northern New Jersey. With the revelation that Mueller has impaneled a grand jury in Washington, DC as well as reports that subpoenas have been issued regarding Don Jr.'s meeting with the Russians, the pressure on Trump is increasing. In addition, there are also reports that top FBI officials have been notified they may be called to testify regarding Trump's obstruction of justice. Meanwhile, Trump himself will be on vacation for the next three weeks, away from the consistent discipline provided by Kelly, and probably free to tweet at will. As I said, it's going to be a hot few weeks.
