Trump Asserts One Rule For Himself
- Michael Wolff argues Trump's actions show he believes he can act differently for himself than he demands of others.
- Trump mailed his vote despite attacking mail-in ballots, framing it as "I can do fuck all that I want" because he's president.

- Wolff and Joanna Coles describe the administration's Iran approach as improvisational without a coherent objective.
- Wolff: "There was no goal" — bombing began but lacked an exit strategy or clear political endgame.
