In the early days of his presidency, Donald Trump displayed a tendency to prioritize leisure over his responsibilities. Reports suggest that he was eager to shorten his work hours and reduce the number of meetings he held, indicating a desire to maintain his usual lifestyle, which included frequent golfing. This early behavior set the tone for his approach to the demands of office.

Michael Wolff's "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House" highlights how Trump's inattentiveness affected his governance. Instead of fully engaging in the complexities of his role, he seemed more focused on managing his time to fit his personal preferences, which raised concerns about his commitment to the presidency.
