This week in the saga

The trade war swings to a new front: as a rival nation's currency collapses, he brings the tariff hammer down and doubles the levy on its steel. At home comes a victory he has waited for — the agent he blames for the whole investigation is finally fired. Primary nights break his way and he names the coming storm as a wave of his own, then points to the sky and christens a new branch of the military in three words. And a year on from the worst day of his last great war, he marks the anniversary quietly, calling for the nation to come together. Victories on every front — and still, in a Virginia jury room, twelve strangers are deciding the fate of one of his men.
