(Jenny Starrs/The Washington Post)If there was any doubt that his presidency is an unending campaign, Donald Trump erased it Friday when he pulled two pieces of paper from his suit jacket and recited the lyrics of a song. Trump explained the metaphor: “You have to think of this in terms of immigration.”On the campaign trail in 2016, Trump frequently told the tale of the snake. “Did anyone ever hear me do ‘The Snake’ during the campaign?” Trump asked the CPAC crowd, which roared back at him with applause. He and his White House are under siege on several fronts, including the intensifying Russia investigation by Robert S. Mueller III, who secured a guilty plea Friday from a former senior Trump campaign official, Rick Gates. Trump spent a considerable portion of his speech reliving his glories from the campaign two years ago.
