The infrastructure bill was the one thing that the president and the Democratic leaders seemed to think they could really get accomplished. At a chummy meeting last month, the president suggested a $2 trillion deal — more than twice what the Democrats were expecting. This week it was time to figure out how to raise the money. Suddenly, Trump went nuts. He was shocked, shocked, shocked to hear that Pelosihad used the word “cover-up” that day in reference to things Congress needed to investigate. “I don’t do cover-ups,” he assured the reporters. (We will pause for a moment here while we recall Stormy Daniels.) Pelosi, who’d been trying to beat back talk of impeachment, was hardly Trump’s biggest problem. But on Wednesday her “cover-up” comment was treated as the equivalent of World War III.

Russian President Vladimir Putin was more prepared for his first meeting with President Donald Trump than the US president was to meet Putin. The encounter ultimately placed the US at a diplomatic disadvantage, according to former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's recollection of the events.Tillerson gave an account of the 2017 G-20 meeting in Hamburg, Germany, during his seven-hour, closed-door testimony before Congress on Tuesday, aides said in a Washington Post report.The Trump-Putin exchange was reportedly expected to last 45 minutes, but it ended up dragging on for more than two hours as the Russian president ran circles around Trump on matters of global significance.
