to be noted by us. I wonder how many times she's taken care to explain terms she can't just assume he knows in their meetings. His aides and advisers. constantly have to.

“Donald Trump was the dumbest g*dd*mn student I ever had.” -- The late Professor William T. Kelley, who taught at Wharton for 31 years before retiring in 1981. He made this statement dozens of times before Trump became involved in politics.

It's an obvious teacher, student relationship.
She has to explain everything in terms the president can understand.
Strictly grade school stuff.
