Trump: 'I love to read.'

Xeni Jardin 8:32 pm Thu Mar 16, 2017

In a recent Fox News interview, President Donald Trump told anchor Tucker Carlson he's beginning to get the hang of this whole reading thing. The interview hit the internet on the same day Trump's administration released an incomprehensibly nihilistic budget draft that he almost certainly didn't read.

It's never too late to acquire important literacy skills that might help you in life.

Snip from the transcript:

"Well, you know, I love to read. Actually, I'm looking at a book, I'm reading a book, I'm trying to get started."

Trump says he does not need to read extensively because he reaches the right decisions “with very little knowledge" https://t.co/zLy1YHe2iZ
