President Donald Trump offered a peak into his decision making process in his interview with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday, and theres really not much to it.
How, when youre sitting at the desk, how do you make decisions? Wallace asked the president in the Oval Office. I mean, do you agonize over them, do you second guess yourself?
I dont think about them, Trump replied. I dont think about, you know, how I make them. I make what I consider the right decision, I have great people working at the White House, they dont get enough credit. I have some tremendously talented people and I will talk to them and sometimes Ill have them go at each other, I do like that, you know let them go at each other. And they do. Theyve very competitive people and at the end I make a decision and its certainly on the economy, a lot of things weve been weve made a lot of good decisions and I want to keep it that way.
When Wallace asked Trump for the toughest decision he has made in office, the president brought up North Korea. I think we had real decision as to which way to go on North Korea and certainly at least so far Im very happy with the way we went, Trump said.
Even though there was talk that they putting up new sites? Wallace asked.
Maybe they are, maybe theyre not, I dont believe that, I dont, Trump said. And you know could which is if thats the way it goes, thats the way it goes. You know, I go with the way we have to go but so far its been good, we have a very good relationship.

(10,270 posts)I particularly like how his approach to foreign policy, and NK specifically is,
'if that's the way it goes, that's the way it goes'
...
Is he running an ice cream stand at the county fair, and his vendor's truck broke down?
NO He's running the goddamn US STATE DEPARTMENT, backed by the most overly mighty military in the history of homo-sapiens, funded by arguably one of the most diverse and stable economies in the history of FUCKING ECONOMIES, and THATS where he comes down???!!!
The Trump Doctrine, ladies and gentlemen:
'The other guy said it's fine, so just fuck it I guess'
