According to NewsNation’s Tanya Noury, an administration official said the president was not given a heads-up about the drone attack that a Ukrainian security official alleged destroyed more than 40 planes well within Russian territory, according to The Associated Press.

    I think the facts demonstrate otherwise. It’s more accurate to say he’s not learning much, and I think that someone like Donald, who has to be the center of international attention, is going to notice when the other national players start leaving him out of the loop.

    That Donald reacted to the bond markets panicking in the face of his tariffs demonstrates that someone inside that Administration has the ability to get him to see reason. It’s a bummer that they don’t bend his ear more often.

      Like other successful fascists, his skill is having his finger on the pulse of his supportive factions. The capitalists are less to him important than the rabid foot soldiers, but he still doesn’t want them to see him as weak.
