POTUS: “Obsessed with himself”

“What does he care about? He cares about himself. That’s all he cares about…The President is obsessed with himself—not the country, not any formulation of plans to improve the country, not his goals for his administration’s first term and certainly not what would be a second term set of goals,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle during a Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Willie Geist, Elise Jordan and Eugene Robinson about a New York Times report from inside the White House that indicates President Donald Trump was consistently distracted during a state-of-the-race meeting with his campaign manager and rarely speaks to his aides about what he would want to accomplish in a second term.
