The President is Unwell. Chapter Gazillion. Yes, I know we've been here before. But yesterday's rambling aria of grievance and crackpottery at what was supposed to be a cabinet meeting is worth a moment of your time. The president boasted of personally being responsible for the capture of Islamic State soldiers; decried the criticism that he was receiving “emoluments” from foreign governments as phony; insinuated that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.) gave information to the whistleblower who raised concerns about the administration’s actions toward Ukraine; attacked his predecessor for signing a deal with Netflix; and turned the Cabinet Room into a stage for a lengthy advertisement for his Florida golf resort, which he originally picked to host a meeting of international leaders before backtracking this weekend in the face of bipartisan criticism. Under Trump, Cabinet meetings have become less about the business of his Cabinet than an opportunity for the president to invite in the assembled press to boast of his own accomplishments, lash out at his critics and to hear the praise flow forth from advisers seated around a large oval table. The gatherings, with the press in attendance, often stretch for 60 to 90 minutes. Exit take: If this was your 70-something uncle at dinner... you'd be concerned. If this was the CEO of any company you can think of, the board would be holding urgent closed-door meetings. If this was a job interview... is there anyone, anywhere who would have said... sure, let's give this guy a position of serious responsibility? thebulwark
