Jon Meacham: Trump’s Mind Is ‘Less About Confusion’ and ‘More Like a Pinball Machine’

EXCERPT:

MEACHAM: "Reading the transcripts is always fascinating, because you do get inside the brain and you begin to see how much bluffing does go on. The image that came to my mind was less about confusion and more about — felt more like a pinball machine or arcade. He’s just this steel ball that hits something, the bells go off and then he bounces off and hits something else. That’s not the most reassuring image you want in a nuclear age at the highest levels.”
