Russia, Russia, Russia

Maybe it's Rupert Murdoch who has hijacked the presidency.
President Trump reportedly schedules last-minute meetings with White House officials based on “whatever he saw on ‘Fox and Friends.’ ”

[...]

“He comes down for the day, and whatever he saw on 'Fox and Friends,' he schedules meetings based on that,” the unidentified source told the news outlet. “If it’s Iran, it’s ‘Get John Bolton down here!’ … If he’s seen something on TV or [was] talking to [Fox News host Sean] Hannity the night before, he’s got lots of flexibility to do whatever he wants to do.”

[...]

One White House aide told Politico that [Chief of Staff John] Kelly has failed in his attempts to stop Trump from making impromptu decisions about meetings, including those centered on attendees and topics of discussion.

[...]

[Trump] once praised the show for being named the “most influential” on television, a title given to the hosts by a media website because it is known that Trump watches it.

Earlier this year, he booked himself for a phone interview on the show.
