Political Cornflakes: President Trump spends 60 percent of his workday in unscheduled ‘executive time’

Since the midterm elections, President Donald Trump has spent about 60 percent of his workday in unscheduled “executive time,” according to leaked schedules obtained by Axios. Trump spends about the first five hours of the day in his residency, where he watches television, reads newspapers and makes phone calls. His first meeting of the day usually does not start until 11 or 11:30 a.m. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told Axios that Trump “has a different leadership style than his predecessors and the results speak for themselves.” [Axios] [The Hill]

Topping the news: Because of the affordable housing crisis, a Salt Lake City couple who has been homeless since 2008 struggles to find an apartment even after receiving a government housing voucher because of its tight price and location requirements.
