Closing take
The common thread here is simple: when Trumpworld is under pressure, it tends to double down on the thing causing the problem. That may satisfy the base for a news cycle, but it leaves paper trails, personnel wreckage, and court filings that age badly. By the time the spin settles, the damage is usually already done.
