We now know that there was no 3-D chess behind Donald Trump’s moves. His erratic behavior was unpredictable because he was broken and unable to devise and stick to coherent policies.

On Monday, Trump sat in the Oval Office and told reporters:

Middle Eastern countries told him they aren’t giving him one cent.
