...According to USA Today, Trump is being kept up to date on every detail which is leading to delays and even more confusion.
“Trump freely offers advice on what he wants to see in the convention, officials said. Previous presidents have taken an interest in convention planning, but Trump’s role is unique given his background in television. The star of a TV reality show before entering politics, Trump often envisions events in terms of how they will look on television,” the report states. ”
According to Ron Bonjean, a GOP political strategist, “When it comes to what a television shot looks like, the president is very engaged. He cares about what the lighting looks like. What are the backgrounds? Who are the other people who are going to be in the shot? He is very detail oriented on what viewers are going to be seeing and how it is going to be portrayed on a daily basis.”
