Trump schedules meetings based on ‘Fox & Friends’ coverage: report
By Avery Anapol - 07/30/18 07:18 AM EDT


President Trump reportedly schedules last-minute meetings with White House officials based on “whatever he saw on ‘Fox and Friends.’ ”

A former White House official told Politico that the president has “lots of flexibility” in working his schedule around whatever topics interest him, often what is discussed on that morning’s Fox News program.

“He comes down for the day, and whatever he saw on 'Fox and Friends,' he schedules meetings based on that,” the unidentified source told the news outlet. “If it’s Iran, it’s ‘Get John Bolton down here!’ … If he’s seen something on TV or [was] talking to [Fox News host Sean] Hannity the night before, he’s got lots of flexibility to do whatever he wants to do.”

If you are talking about Trump he is winning it really does not matter what position you take as long as someone supports him or totally hates the sight of his fake orange hair and anus mouth. Everyday Trump gets by without being bankrupted or incarcerated he wins. By that measure my rant “I despise Trump” helps him. I do believe this chaotic brand of winning ratings based Fascism is something we have never seen before.
