    It would be interesting to see what would happen if Obama and Trump switched their media diet for a month -- Trump reading The Atlantic & New Yorker, Obama watching Fox & OANN and reading Gateway Pundit.https://twitter.com/MattZeitlin/status/1328369741770186753 …

    obama may be the perfect consumer of upper-middlebrow print media (the times, the atlantic, the novels and nonfiction he reads) as trump is of cable news

        I don't think The Atlantic or New Yorker have enough pictures for Trump.

        Obama's hair would be grayer and Trump would have a stack of unread material on his floor.

        Yep, there is NO WAY Don achieves that reading level. He could have it read aloud to him, but he wouldn’t sit though it and would be confused by much of what he heard.

        Obama's eyes would fall out, due to the constant rolling, and Trump would never get past the first paragraph of anything.
