Trump is playing zero-dimensional chess

[kpete]

Trump is laying down the tracks as the train is speeding down them. The strategy is survival and, in the broadest sense, “winning.” But the idea that Trump has some sort of long-game strategy on where the track is heading and how to get there is disproved with each passing day.

Or, to borrow a phrase from my friend Philip Bump, it’s more likely that Trump is playing zero-dimensional chess than it is that he is playing the three-dimensional version.

2. Trump is in a time out...

He does not get to play games until he learns to play well with others...in the meantime, I hear he is enjoying eating paste.

4. Everyone should read, 'Man of the house, The life and political memoirs of Speaker Tip O'Neill'

There have been more than a few, intelligent Presidents in the whitehouse that managed to screw up their agendas with congress and not get their legislation passed. Tip talks about dealing with congress in a practical manner.

Trump is just a clueless wonder, meandering around while throwing spaghetti at the wall.
