Dump censors his national security advisers

This is frightening from Robert Reich, where a right wingnut TV propaganda machine is deciding national security policy.

"In all my years in government, I've never heard of a president censoring his own national security advisors. Yet senior intelligence officials have reportedly been warned not to present Trump with information about national security that contradicts his bogus claims, fearing that he will lash out and launch into a diatribe. In briefings, Trump has become enraged when given analysis that goes against what he's heard on Fox News or from other right wing sources, according to a new report. The idea that the President of the United States is willfully ignorant about the real national security threats facing the country, and is censoring his own advisors to reinforce an alternative reality for himself, should set off alarm bells across America and in the halls of Congress."
