Hi, and welcome to Trump Watch! I too have spent weeks out at sea, only to be arrested on fraud charges once I've approached the coast of Connecticut. But really, I'll be escaping DC next week for non-fraudulent reasons so Trump Watch will also be taking a break. Send me your feedback at [email protected], and follow me on Twitter at @jacq_thomsen.
