He's had a handful -- two-ish? -- weeks that could reasonably be described by neutral observers as "good." The rest of his weeks as President fall somewhere between not very good and disastrously bad.

Below, I've ranked Trump's six worst weeks. (I am defining a week for the purposes of this discussion as Monday-Sunday.) What weeks did I miss? Send me an email at cillizza@cnn.com and I'll add to this post if need be!

Thus began a months-long (and still ongoing) attempt by Trump's senior staff to find something (anything!) that backed up this claim. So far: Nothing.

After his White House works to trace the Comey firing to a memo outlining his many mistakes in the 2016 election penned by deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, Trump does an interview with Lester Holt in which he tells the NBC anchor: "What I did is I was going to fire Comey, my decision. I was going to fire regardless of recommendation. (Rosenstein) made a recommendation. He's highly respected. Very good guy, very smart guy, the Democrats like him, the Republicans like him, he made a recommendation. But regardless of recommendation, I was going to fire Comey."

Technically, this week isn't over yet -- Trump still has 48 hours to make it even worse. But, even if he does nothing bad between now and Sunday, the damage done to not only to his presidency but also the Republican party and the country is significant.
