"Monday Night Massacre?" Analysis by Anthony Zurcher, North America journalist, BBC News
Donald Trump's pundits are calling it the "Monday Night Massacre". That is a reference to President Richard Nixon's Saturday night sacking of his lawyer general amid the profundities of the Watergate embarrassment of 1973, the last time beat equity division authorities were constrained out by a president.
