Although, on behalf of the author, 6 days in Trump time is like 6 months for a normal politician. It's like everything gets sped up.
Normally, it takes politicians months to flip flop on policy, Trump did it mid-debate. Most presidents it took years (if they even got there) to hit 50+ percent disapproval ranking; Trump did it in like a month. He wasn't going to fire the guy investigating his friends... until a week later when he fired the guy investigating his friends.
Six days to go from "moderate Republican" to "Facist" is pretty slow in Trump time.
This was 2015, though. What was going on in the Trump timeline to justify that?
