The Wall Street Journal has reported that advisers to Donald Trump, the President of the United States, have recommended that he reduce his media appearances to minimize the prominence of his conflicting statements on political and security developments.<\/p>\n
According to the report, those close to Trump have repeatedly warned him that consecutive interviews could highlight inconsistencies in his positions. It is said that he followed this advice for a time but then resumed active engagement with journalists and media appearances.<\/p>\n
The report further notes that on several occasions during interviews, Trump made a claim and later in the same conversation contradicted his earlier statements. The Wall Street Journal highlighted that this pattern has been particularly noticeable regarding tensions and the potential military conflict with Iran.<\/p>\n
Additionally, informed sources told the newspaper that following the downing of an American fighter jet over Iran, Trump expressed anger towards his deputies in reaction to the incident, fearing the possibility of a crisis similar to the 1979 hostage situation in Iran.<\/p>\n
Based on the report, his deputies only provided him with the general outlines of the U.S. military\u2019s plan concerning the crisis and refrained from sharing further details.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
