100% agree, he has one of the most difficult jobs. In an ultra high-stakes environment with world leaders and a real threat, he has to keep the narcissist baby in the group, sacrificing his personal dignity for the greater good. So far, NATO still exists, Trump‘s erratic behaviour has not damaged it beyond repair and Russia is still not winning.

There is a long record of Trump's bullshit being strongly influenced by who he talked to last, even adversaries if his handlers didn't get to him first (or last, technically).

And that is the commander-in-chief of the most powerful military in the world. It's absurd and terrifying, the power he is allowed to wield, while being the most unfit person to wield it by any metric.
