Of the blue revelations because the president has not, for instance, sat down and done what other people in previous situations have done which is give as full an accounting of what occurred as is possible. >> although the speech this afternoon is going to be a big test of this newfound discipline and focus of donald trump and his messaging because what weve seen more times than we can count in the past is that when theres a story line that is going that donald trump doesnt like, hell say someth...
