President Donald Trump finds himself in the middle of two dizzying news cycles — one abroad and one back home.

Playbook’s Jack Blanchard and White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns discuss how each of these moves underlines the extent of Trump’s unique position and power during his second presidency.
