President Trump’s latest Cabinet meeting showcased a White House adrift, with officials focused on flattering him rather than governing. As Trump’s approval drops to 36 percent and the economy falters, his Cabinet — including Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel — fills the vacuum with chaotic decisions, such as unpopular, poorly justified airstrikes. Even Republicans warn Hegseth’s actions may constitute war crimes. Meanwhile, layoffs rise, consumer confidence sinks, and Trump appears disengaged, insisting he’ll “let you know when something is wrong.” The meeting underscored a second term defined by denial, dysfunction, and a leadership void.
