Wallace: Instead of Trump Adjusting to the Presidency, It’s Going to Have to Adjust to Trump

‘It becomes increasingly clear that he is going to do it his way’

EXCERPT:

WALLACE: "Let’s just talk first of all about what we just saw, Jenna, and what struck me is that we have all been talking about how Donald Trump is going to have to adjust to the office of president, but as you watched him there, as he was speaking and talking about the relationships he has in a very informal and entertaining way with various members of Congress, with members of his cabinet, reviewing how they have done in their hearings, I was thinking that instead of Trump adjusting to the presidency, the presidency is going to have to adjust to Donald Trump. Because it becomes increasingly clear that he is going to do it his way, and you’re not going to tell a 70-year-old billionaire, 'Well, now you have to do things in a different way than you are comfortable doing them.' This is going to be the Trump way. That is the way it’s been in the transition, that is the way it was on the campaign, and clearly that's the way it will be as president."
