Trump enters the White House facing myriad crises
Donald Trump enters the White House embroiled in scandal, in a pitched battle with the intelligence services and news media, and facing a world on fire.
Among the many challenges the president-elect will face after his inauguration on Friday, the most urgent may be to steady the ship.
Even before being sworn in, he is facing a Congressional investigation into possible collusion between Russia and his election campaign.
Fearing an asterisk is being painted next to his historic victory over Hillary Clinton, Trump has gone on the offensive.
The incoming Republican leader has lashed out at "sleazebag political operatives," the intelligence services -- whom he compared to Nazis -- and the media, reprising campaign tactics that played well with his base.
But add to that serious allegations of nepotism, legal problems over his business interests, the ill-preparedness of some of his cabinet nominees and a fracas over health care reform that has left Republicans in disarray, and the picture gets even bleaker.
The image of "Teflon Don" -- who as a candidate rode out scandal like no one else in modern political history -- is taking on water.
