BASH: “You and our colleagues at the White House have been doing, of course, another day, another round of really great reporting. And in this new story, you talk about speaking to senior White House advisers about how Trump is feeling right now. One in particular said the following, said, quote, he just loves this shit. That’s a quote, talking deals with the most powerful people in the world when he’s got all the cards and leverage is like air for him. I mean, air for him, but certainly I’m not sure if air is or maybe it’s more the gasping for oxygen that a lot of consumers are feeling and Americans are feeling right now.”
