Theres so much turmoil right now it teams like the wheels are coming off the bus whats your take on all this. I talk to my colleagues about this all the time it is positively exhausting. We have a president who tweets, we have him making decisions, sometimes seemingly to provoke, to turn the page, to crowd the stage with more action. I dont think americans know how to make sense of it. One of my greatest worries the provocatio provocations, the acts of indecency and bad judgment come at us so quick lly that they al blur and numbering americans to the point we can cant see as we should. Do you think thats strategic or someone whose mind its a organic convergence of both those things. I often feel the same way you feel. What were we covering last week do you remember.
