In Michael Wolff's "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," it becomes evident that many professionals expected to collaborate with Trump were surprised to realize his lack of knowledge. As they began their roles, it became increasingly clear that he was not well-informed about crucial issues and decisions. This discrepancy raised concerns about his leadership capabilities and understanding of complex matters.

The professionals' realization of Trump's ignorance highlights a disconnect between their expertise and his approach to governance.

Such dynamics not only affected decision-making but also the overall functionality of his administration.
