President Donald Trump has had a particularly loud and combative summer. As CNN’s Brooke Baldwin pointed out on Friday, these past four weeks have been a nonstop series of tense headlines, as POTUS pivots, embellishes, hires, and fires with all the vigor of, well, his storied run on reality TV.

Try to catch your breath.
