Trump talked tough at the college commencements for the last two days but the events of the past eight days have gotten ahead of him.

On Tuesday 5/10, Trump fired Comey, the man leading the investigation into Trump for his campaign's ties to the Russian government.

On Wednesday 5/11, he welcomed the Russian Foreign Minister and Ambassador into the Oval Office. Russian state media were allowed in. U.S. reporters were not.

On Thursday 5/12, Trump admitted to NBC that "when I decided to [fire Comey], I said to myself -- I said, you know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story."

On Friday 5/13, he took to Twitter to hint that he had taped his conversations with Comey. The White House refused to deny that he had.

On Sunday 5/14, Trump played golf. (It was Mother's Day.)

On Monday 5/15, the Washington Post reported that Trump shared highly classified intelligence on ISIS with the Russian Foreign Minister in the Oval Office.

On Tuesday 5/16, according to a memo that Comey wrote shortly afterward, Trump asked Comey, to shut down the federal investigation into Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, in an Oval Office meeting in February.

On Wednesday 5/17, Justice Department appoints special prosecutor to investigate Russia, Trump campaign ties.

And bad news for poor Trumpie just keeps on coming. Turmoil over recent Trump controversies triggered the Dow’s biggest loss since September.

Congressional Republicans appeared to be digging in for a long investigation.

If Trump's popularity dips any lower Congressional Republicans will abandon Trump like passengers from a sinking ship.
