With “truth” and “liar” emerging as a tourney trend, Round 1 of Tournament of Trump produced a dramatic upset as the No. 8 seed, Who Do You Trust?, knocked off the No. 1 seed, The Apprentice, in the Kremlin Region. Other winners in the region were The Biggest Loser (2 seed), To Tell the Truth (4 seed), and the 6 seed, You Don’t Say, in another upset.
In the West Wing Region, the No. 1 seed, I’ve Got a Secret, cruised to an easy win. In fact, all the favored teams won: No. 2, The Biggest Loser, No. 3, You Don’t Say, and No. 4, To Tell the Truth.
In the Capitol Hill Region, another 8 seed pulled off a stunning upset, as Password knocked off Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader? The 7 seed, Tattle Tales, pulled another huge upset. Favorites Deal or No Deal (3 seed) and Truth or Consequences (4 seed) prevailed.
In the Trump Tower Region, the 1 seed, Jeopardy, won as did the No. 2 seed, Let’s Make a Deal. The No. 6 seed, Pass the Buck, upset the No. 3 seed, Dancing with the Czars. The 4-seed, The Weakest Link, also won.
Regional MVPs were Ky Retweet, Kevin Love-Russia, Russell Westwing, and “King James” Comey.
Round 2 kicks off this week with play during the Attorney General Sessions' session, and concludes on or before June 23, when tapes and memos are due to congressional committees.
