Jimmy Kimmel noted Wednesday marks the one-year anniversary of Donald Trump winning the presidential election. "Isn't it crazy to think we're already 80% of the way through this presidency?" Kimmel marveled. The ABC late-night host called it unfair that a lot of people say Trump hasn't accomplished anything. In this one year, he has played golf more than 70 times, which is a presidential record, Kimmel revealed.

13 onscreen female presidents who would be better than Donald Trump

In the meantime, 365 days ago we seemed mere hours away from the first female president, but that particular brand of leader remains available only in fictional form. Unable to land (so far) in reality, a female leader of the free world has shown up everywhere from sitcoms to dystopian YA landscapes. More recent female presidents have fortunately proved to be much more formidable. Jones won a well-deserved Emmy for portraying one of the strongest onscreen female presidents ever. President Sally Langston (Kate Burton), Scandal (2012)Nobody ever said that Scandal's Sally Langston didn't take advantage of an opportunity.

Russia's excitement for 'their man' Donald Trump has turned sour in just one year

as informed in Soon after came the evidence that Russia had first conspired against Ms Clinton, and later actively for Mr Trump. The talk is of "feik nyus", of "Russophobes" blocking Mr Trump from doing his noble, pro-Russian deeds.

(CNN) The race for Virginia governor on Tuesday night wasn't very close. And Republicans have Donald Trump to blame for it. In key areas of Virginia Republicanism -- the suburbs of Richmond and the exurbs of Washington, DC -- Republican Ed Gillespie ran far behind recent past GOP gubernatorial nominees and even behind Trump himself.

There are at least five separate parts of the House legislation — which I call a "tax cut" bill because it sure isn't "tax reform" — that will benefit Trump and his family.

The Trump tax five-fecta makes me angry, because I don't see any reason that my family should be subsidizing Trump's family.
