1. There are times when Donald Trump speaks too bluntly. It's not that he shouldn't be blunt, but it's clear to anyone who follows him for months at a time that there's often a complete disconnect between what he says BLUNTLY one day and what he says BLUNTLY two months later. This sort of nonsense doesn't reinforce his credibility at all ... it completely undermines it.
2. I'm sure there's a strategy here that I'm not aware of, and I'm fine with that. Making public comments like this in an interview with the New York Times, of all places -- after all the bullsh!t they tried to get away with in attacking President Trump over the last two years -- makes this whole thing look like nothing more than a staged WWE match.
