“You either had to just convince him something better was his idea or ignore what he said to do and hoped he forgot about it the next day,” said Barbara Res, a former executive in the Trump Organization.
At the Washington Post, Dan Drezner recently helped document each of the times White House officials have characterized the president in ways that make him sound like a small child. The fact that his list is in constant need of updates is terrifying.

I hear you. We should have understood what kind of leader this was from the conduct unbecoming he displayed during the Republican primaries. The worst of the 17 stellar candidates got the most votes. Very sad state of affairs in America when demagoguery wins out like this. And he is still manipulating.
