But remember Obama worn that tan suit, so no matter what Trump does or says, it can't trump the suit.

And so it was Monday that he skated through yet another sequence of stunning controversies and outrageous plot twists that would have been defining scandals for any other administration.

Had President Barack Obama thought of inviting Taliban terrorists to Camp David at the time of the 9/11 anniversary, the Republican Party would have been in meltdown.

Had President George W. Bush caused the CIA to extract a highly placed Russia asset because of careless handling of classified intelligence, Washington would be in uproar.

And if a Cabinet secretary had threatened to fire top officials if they refused to lie to protect a president -- say, Hillary Clinton, had she won in 2016 -- impeachment would be in the air.

Touching on corruption claims tainting his administration's reputation, Trump also dismissed concerns that his administration was directing government business to his resorts in Scotland and Ireland.

He didn't argue that such a move would be unethical

It took only a few hours for the next stunner to break.

The New York Times reported that Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross had threatened to fire top National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration employees if the agency didn't disavow a tweet from a regional office that contradicted Trump's false claim that Hurricane Dorian was likely to hit Alabama.

Ross called acting NOAA Administrator Neil Jacobs and told him to fix the National Weather Service's contradiction of Trump's claim. When Jacobs opposed the demand, Ross told him NOAA's political staff would be fired, the Times reported.
