His planning, his concern, his goal is entirely focused on the next day's headline/talking point.

But... that is true every day. He only ever cares about the next headline. There is no planning, or care, beyond that.

He doesn't limit his care to tomorrow's headline because that will allow him to get over some hump or obstacle which, successfully passed, will then allow a proper plan or solution. No, instead tomorrow he will only care about tomorrow's tomorrow's headline. And repeat, forever.

[Redacted] is one of the weakest men in human history. Honesty and forthrightness are impossible for him. In fact, they frighten him.
