Chuck Todd: Trump Loves Such a Trumpy Week Because It’s All About Trump

‘Is there anything more Trump than the way he rolled out yesterday’s announcement on tariffs’

RUSH EXCERPT:

That was at one time this afternoon. But is there anything more trump than how a White House official then backtracked the walk back telling the “Wall Street journal” the invitation to meet with Kim Jong-un, was, quote, extended and that stands. And could there be anything more trump. That depends. Is there anything more trump than the way he rolled out yesterday’s announcement on tariffs and how it made his top economic adviser look after looking side lines on a top matter of economic policy or how his White House staff was caught off guard or this I alone can fix it attitude the president has about something to complicated. You see a pattern here. Could there be anything more trump than all of that. That depends. Is there anything more trump than the stormy Daniels, an extramarital affair with a porn staff and $130,000 in mush money and a temporary restraining order. And is there anything more trump that the meltdown of his former adviser Sam Nunberg who called trump a [ inaudible ]. Well that depends. Is there anything more trump than all of these stories happening in the same week. Folks, this is the trump presidency. This is normal. For trump. A Monday meltdown and Tuesday resignation and a spat on Wednesday and trade war on Thursday and agreement to meet with Kim Jong-un on Friday. And after a week like this, you might ask, this is the trump presidency. But after a week like this, you have got your answer. And you might ask what does trump think of such a trumpy week. Well after a week like this, you know that answer. He loved it. Why? It is all about trump."
