President Trump, and the failure of the Republican health care bill.

the finger at Democrats," Mr. Trump is now "turning his fire at his own
party."

Wall Street Journal editorial: "The President's Credibility"
A
piece in The New York Times, below, concerns a forceful Wall Street Journal
editorial which appeared online Tuesday night. The Journal's editorial,
titled "A President’s Credibility," included the following, as noted by
The Times:
“Two months into his Presidency, Gallup has Mr. Trump’s approval rating at 39 percent. No doubt Mr. Trump considers that fake news, but if he doesn’t show more respect for the truth, most Americans may conclude he’s a fake President.”
