this president has a very different management style. there s only one president and only one point of view and i promise you he does not get manipulated. he surrounds himself with bright people. steve is one of them. he has a flophilosophy that has place. as does jared and deanna powell as does hrchlt r. mcmaster. so what happens is he curates different points of view and encourages confusion amongst them. what happens is a misunderstanding sometimes on the outside that of course you re going to have fights inside of the sandbox that are on purpose and the president then curates a point of view to determine what he wants to do and he adapts. i think you see the president going from contender to a
