Book: Landslide

Landslide describes a president who was not really interested in doing the work necessary or required to steer the government. There was often no one in charge; there were meetings with no agenda or purpose, other than to listen to the president wax about whatever was on his mind, not often actual business; and the main objective, every day, was to give the president what he wanted to hear, slanted in the way he wanted it, irrespective of facts or truth. And so often, he just bashed and insulted people, often persons in his very presence, or on TV, or wherever, he just emoted insults and berating and neglected the country’s business.
