Slate Daily Feed show

Summary: On The Gist, even if we get a law to make Robert Mueller unfireable, President Trump could trample all over it.  <br><br>In the interview, sports journalist Mary Pilon tells the story of Olympic sailor Kevin Hall’s struggle with the Truman Show delusion (where someone believes he or she is the focus of a reality TV program). Pilon’s new book is <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/163286682X/?tag=slatmaga-20"><em>The Kevin Show: An Olympic Athlete’s Battle With Mental Illness</em></a>. <br><br>In the Spiel, Stormy Daniels might win the right to talk. But can her story trouble Trump’s presidency, or would it just be tabloid fodder?
