This week in Trumpland

Immigration ban upheld, Trump vows to fight on: Trump started the week with a blustery tweet about the Ninth Circuit's deliberation on his travel ban ("If the U.S. does not win this case as it so obviously should, we can never have the security and safety to which we are entitled. Politics!"), but the court's decision to uphold the temporary restraining order on Thursday night brought him to break out the all caps ("SEE YOU IN COURT, THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!"). At his joint press conference with Abe on Friday afternoon, Trump said something is coming "very rapidly" on national security, perhaps as early as next week.

Trouble in Trumpadise: By all accounts, it wasn't a great week to work in 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Kellyanne Conway was "counseled" about promoting Ivanka's brands live on Fox News, and may be investigated by the Office of Government Ethics. Sean Spicer had another rocky week with the White House press corps. Reince and Bannon had to give a joint interview to prove that they're buddies. And leaks on leaks in the White House led Trump to order his staff to "cut this shit out."

Flynn in hot water: Reports emerged this week that Trump's national security advisor actually did discuss sanctions with the Russian ambassador before Trump took office. That's a sharp turn from his continued categorical denials that no such discussions took place. No one knows what might happen to Flynn — he's unlikely to be prosecuted for the charges — but his already-tenuous status in Washington has taken a big hit.

Yemen aftermath gets worse: More details leaked about the raid that killed Navy SEAL Ryan Owens, stating that the raid failed to eliminate its primary target, a senior Al-Qaeda leader. That was compounded by the deaths of numerous civilians, including children, which led Yemen to pull its support for American ground missions in the country. Many, like Sen. John McCain, branded the raid a "failure," which led Trump to push back defensively both on Twitter and through Sean Spicer's press briefing.

The Cabinet takes shape: But it wasn't all bad for Trump this week. He managed to get Betsy Devos, Jeff Sessions, and Tom Price confirmed by the Senate. Given Senate Democrats' utter aversion to these nominees and a huge public pushback, especially regarding Devos, their confirmations can only be seen as huge wins for Trump. Now, all eyes turn to Andrew Puzder's hearings next week, as Dems are desperate to prevent Trump from getting the Cabinet of his dreams.
