Even according to the American media, the Telegraph reports, Trump watches up to seven hours of news before arriving at the Oval Office by noon, when he finally receives the "daily report" of intelligence, according to The New York Times.
Otherwise, as Business Insider writes, former presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama usually received "reports" early in the morning.
Bush would arrive at the Oval Office around 6:45 a.m. as Obama became the first president to receive an electronic version of an iPad so he could read it immediately after waking up before arriving at the Oval Office around 9 p.m. or 10 a.m.
After Trump has lunch with other officials, is reportedly calling some governors and world leaders and completing his announcements about coronavirus, he returns to watch TV with close aides to review his performance while enjoying “food” comfortable ”with chips and dietary Coca-Cola.
Then he watches even more TV again in the White House mansion area, with only a few occasions to be for dinner with first lady Melania Trump and his 14-year-old son, Barron, the report said.
As far as it can review the footage of the announcements afterwards, The Times said Trump has rarely attended White House coronavirus Task Force meetings before.
Even when it comes to the prepared remarks he gives, Trump sees them for the first time, making "last minute observations" shortly before reading them, according to The Times.
Unable to hold rallies or visit his other properties to make golf, Trump is increasingly irritated, accepting shorter phone calls from outside advisers and echoing disappointments about his media coverage.
"A lot of friends said they were less likely to call Mr. Trump's cell phone, assuming he didn't want to listen to their advice," The Times said. "Those who achieve this have said that phone calls are shorter: A conversation that lasted 20 minutes, now lasts only three."
However, Trump will always receive calls from Brad Parscale, his campaign manager who updates him with his survey numbers, which according to The Times, have deteriorated in some states.
