Our president delivered his state of the union message to congress. that is one of the things his contract calls for -- to tell congress the condition of the country. this message, as i say, is to congress. the rest of the people know the condition of the country, for they live in it, but congress has no idea what is going on in america, so the president has to tell 'em.

Normally what happens in a new presidency is the president has a big agenda, and congress is full of people with human weaknesses. and so the president indulges the human weaknesses of members of congress in order to pass his agenda. this time it's the other way around. donald trump does not have much of an agenda. congress burns with this intense republican agenda and so does congress that has to put up with the human weaknesses of the president in order to get a signature on the things it desperately wants to pass.

Drive-bys want you to think that donald trump doesn't have a mind of his own. he's either doing what steve bannon tells him to do or he's either doing what jared kushner tells him to do or he's then doing what gary cohn tells him to do, and then sometimes he might do what ivanka trump tells him to do. they want you to believe he doesn't have a mind of his own, that he actually believes the last thing somebody tells him. i don't think that's how it happened.
