NYT: For Trump, “War Every Day,” Waged Increasingly Alone
At the midpoint of his term, the president has grown more sure of his own judgment and more isolated from anyone else than at any point since he took office.
Great reporting from the New York Times:
“The portrait that emerges from interviews with about 30 current and former administration officials, personal friends, political allies, lawmakers and congressional aides suggests a president who revels in sharp swings in direction, feels free to disregard historic allies and presides over near constant turmoil within his own team as he follows his own instincts.”
