This is a serious question, it’s been documented throughly that Trump reads very little. Even during internal policy debates regarding the most serious matters of State, Trump doesn’t read or want to take in much information. His briefings are mostly limited to a single page of information with bullet points and charts.

Trump mostly gets information from tv, although it’s well established he likes to look at the NYT, does he actually read it?

Trump is a great self promoter, he has always created his own reality and promoted it. I think he still operates this way, even though he is POTUS and no longer a NY real estate developer. He doesn’t need to read, in fact it’s a detriment to his reality construct. Self promotion is the all encompassing fixation and reading other people’s information doesn’t help Trump create his own promotional reality.
