I love a good road trip, but this is brutally out of touch: a Trump Cabinet member making a documentary about himself while regular families can't afford road trips anymore, because Trump and his war put gas prices through the roof.

Narcissists always get bored with, and want to quit, things they do that don't go well.

This is usually accompanied by statements blaming others for the boredom and the not going well.

Two points to toss into the hopper:

(1). Trump, former "reality" show compere, is a short attention span, mentally ill, six-times bankrupt who repeatedly demonstrates he is incapable of managing even a gambling den.

(2). Iran's foreign minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi, scion of a family of prosperous Isfahan rug merchants, has a book out - The Power of Negotiation: Principles and Rules of Political and Diplomatic Negotiations. I have not read Araghchi's treatise and it's entirely possible nobody in the White House has, either. But, reaching across the aisle here, perhaps someone should.
