Relevant detail: Sean Hannity, the sometime Trump adviser whose Fox News show the president watches regularly, has been obsessively claiming that the "real" collusion was between Hillary Clinton and Ukraine since 2017. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Some things are complicated, and some things are the result of the president gorging himself on his own propaganda every night.
This is the intelligence briefing Trump actually cares about.
I respect the inclination to try to pull a logical explanation for this that doesn't sound nuts, but the reality is that the president believes what he sees on his Fox News shows and since 2017 they have been telling him that Ukraine is evil and worked with Hillary to stop him.
Is it possible that nearly three years into Trump's tenure the White House doesn't have someone watching the Fox News shows he loves (F&F, Tucker, Carlson, Pirro) and providing summaries to senior staff so that they know what he's talking about?
