Archiving former Presidents Trump's news feed

This repo contains a Github action that finds and archives any new posts on the "news" section of the former president's website. These posts typically consist of four categories:

The action runs hourly and produces two CSV files:

TABLE DESCRIPTION
all_press_releases_archive.csv All of Trump's 1,500+ statements since Jan. 17, 2021
all_press_releases_latest.csv Trump's most recent 10 statements

The resulting tables contain four variables:

COLUMN DESCRIPTION
date Date of release in %Y-%m-%d format.
headline Unedited headline from the release
url URL address of the release
body_text Full text of the release without capturing any inline links (yet)

The archive also has the dates parsed into year,month,weekday and month_year columns.

Please let us know if you have any questions or comments.
