the president almost couldn't believe don junior somehow got sucked in the middle of this, in digs belief that don junior was the one who got pulled in. >> more from ashley and her colleagues at the post, that despite his private concern for those like donald junior in public, quote, trump is a man roaring. trump is more than ever channeling his frustration and fear into a ravenous grievance. he is churning out false statements with greater frequency and attacking his perceived enemies with intensifying fury. it has not been years with the trump administration, despite the fact we might all age that amount of time. how does this report around his state of mind square with what you know? >> well, i think the hard thing always with trump is to gauge changes in state of mind because it's really a moment to moment proposition. there's been mornings where he fires -- he'll be angry about something that he's seen in "the new york times" and he does really read the physical papers
