But people are also thinking this isn't how a president behaves.

This has none of the decorum of a US president.

The local airport in Washington DC that you fly into in the center of the city, when I lived here for the first 15 years of living in Washington, it was called National Airport.

And then it was changed, the name was changed under George W. Bush to Reagan Airport.

That was almost 20 years after Ronald Reagan had left office.

That's the way presidents behave.

They don't name things in their own time.

Who names things in their own time?

Emperors and kings and autocrats.

Trump is literally, on the 250th anniversary of America, going to have a wrestling fight

on the front lawn of the White House.

This is like a gladiatorial competition.

He's embodying Caesar with a gladiatorial competition.

Of course, he's saying this is all for the 250th anniversary of America, and that's how he's taking advantage of this moment in history to say, I'm doing all of this for the 250th anniversary of America.

But actually, a lot of it has been doing for him with his name on things, his name on the passports for this year.

I think voters won't thank him for it, but as he says,

He's not on the ballot box in November, so I'm not sure he cares that much.

But it is interesting that what he should be focused on and what he wants to be focused on in this particular moment, they're two very different things.

Joe Biden tried to do that in 2020 and it worked to some extent.

But allies, particularly European allies, are not going to trust whoever comes back in because they'll say, that's great.
