What she writes is true of Trump. He doesn't even allow himself to contemplate the possibility that he's the cause of harming others. But that's not true for people like Jared Kushner and Stephen Miller, and the others. They totally understand what they are doing.
Jared Kushner was even quoted months ago saying: "I don't care about any of that."
I told Jared that if Trump won a second term, he wouldnt have to worry about running again and you can really help people. Jared just looked at me and said, I dont care about any of that, the executive told the outlet.

It's important to get the pathology right. Trump is surrounded by advisors who completely understand they are killing Americans, and they intend to do so.
Haberman is still giving the White House an exit ramp they don't deserve. It's like that ridiculous (mostly discredited) argument about Auschwitz, that killing the Jewish people was so compartmentalized that the people involved weren't actually aware they were participating in The Holocaust.
They have blinders on and can't see
Give me a break.
