I came up with an idea for why Trump doesn’t read briefings and prefers Fox/Real America TV News ad nauseum for his security info.

Vanity.

Like most 77 year olds, he has bad presbyopia (far-sightedness). He needs bifocals. Kinda normal, right? Not for Trump.

His vanity won’t let him wear glasses because, god forbid, that would be a sign of weakness. Because only weak people need specs. And he’s not weak. He’s Trump Stong. Like a Trump Truck, flying the flag and Burnin’ Coal.

It’s also why he signs stuff with a black Sharpie in giant letters. Otherwise he can’t see what he’s doing.

What a weakling. And as Tim says, the luckiest man on the planet.
