Trump likes to fly by the seat of his pants a lot and he does have a large ego. This is both bad and good. The good is he can do things the regular career pols won't. The bad is maybe he is susceptible to influence he thinks makes him look good. What I do not understand is that there have been some brilliant moves by Trump and he is no dummy. How could all this go so wrong so fast? Why wasn't Powell's evidence used? And there were reports WH staff blocked her from reaching Trump. We do not have all the pieces.
