The funny part of the piece is it begins with this rhetorical question about whether Trump has been reading the works of Hegel because of Hegel's theory of world historical individuals, like sort of great man theory.

And obviously, Mike and Ashley don't think that Trump is doing that.

But in the piece, it says like they asked some Trump aides if he'd been reading Hegel and they all sort of laughed with the idea that Trump's not much of a reader, which I know we know that.

But there just is something very concerning about the fact that the president doesn't read.

Right.

He doesn't read books, doesn't read briefings.

He kind of reads the New York Times, I guess.

And what a bumpy ride it's been.

Pod Save America is brought to you by Quince.

This time of year, you might start to be more intentional about what you wear day to day, leaning into pieces that feel easy, comfortable, and still put together.

Quince has go-tos to upgrade your wardrobe.

The fabrics feel elevated, the fits are clean, and everything just works without needing to overthink it.

Quince is all the wardrobe staples for spring.

Think 100% European linen shorts and shirts from $34.

Lightweight, breathable, and comfortable, but still look put together.

And clean, 100% Pima cotton tees with a softness that has to be felt.

Their pants also hit that same balance, relaxed and comfortable, but still polished enough to wear pretty much anywhere.

Everything is priced 50% to 80% less than what you find with similar brands.

Quince works directly with ethical factories, cuts out the middlemen, so you're getting premium materials without the markup.

I bought a bunch of stuff from Quince, both for myself, kind of like basic t-shirts, stuff like that, and also some really nice sweaters for people at the holidays.
