    It’s almost like the president doesn’t yet understand he’s running a country, the federal government, and the White House itself.https://twitter.com/maggienyt/status/980164909093834752 …

    Maggie HabermanVerified account @maggieNYT
    One person close to Trump suggested last week that whoever succeeds Kelly will have the title but basically will exist to be a paper-pusher, which is how a Trump sees the job. “A bureaucratic waste” was how the person described his view of it.

        a) This is a nonsequitur to the tweet to which it responds b) Cherry picking one poll to make a specious comparison rather than looking at even two, let alone a polling average, brands you as a bad faith, dishonest debater unworthy of serious people’s time or attention

        I think that’s more apt for the middle area of the broader federal govt. Re: the White House, I think it’s more he just thinks he’s the smartest: Best comms director, best counsel, and best chief of staff. He just can’t imagine someone else doing a specific job better than him.

        I feel ya. But yet there’s still the orchestrated evil take in which a would-be despot consolidates further power by removing it from positions which used to hold and maintain some.

        The idea that any president “runs” the country is laughable...

        🙄 ... obviously. The point being that the chief executive has three distinct roles and the chief of staff helps ensure the proper running of the smallest of those.

        I wonder if the less people he has the less he can do. The only upside of downsizing 😂
