Donald Trump enters the final 11 days of his presidency more isolated and besieged than ever, having survived the worst week of his tenure with his grip on the Republican Party weakened, renewed calls for his impeachment in Congress and his Twitter account shut down.
A seven-day stretch that began with a call demanding Georgia officials help overturn the state’s election — "Fellas, I need 11,000 votes,” Trump said — crescendoed with him inciting a mob toward the nation’s Capitol, an attack that left five people dead and prompted two cabinet members and other senior officials to resign.
Now Trump — who survived a special counsel probe, an impeachment saga and outrage over his treatment of immigrants at the border — has the most tenuous hold on power of his four years in office. He has dominated the political landscape in America for more than five years, but what happens in the next two weeks could shape Trump’s legacy more than anything that came before.
