Welcome in NextE's. You're not really called NextDies. For those you don't know, we're still looking

for a name for the community here, but it's a running joke. For those of you don't get it,

we'll never actually name the community, probably. But today I'm calling you NextDies just for fun,

trying it out. Welcome in NextEes. I'm Mark Alpert, editor-in-chief of the live interactive video platform two-way and your guide to everything that's next up.

We have a jam-pack show today, which is what people in the video business always say.

But this one is real.

In a moment, my monologue, my reported monologue on how Donald Trump makes decisions.

It's one of the, I think, most misunderstood, underappreciated aspects of his leadership, of his presidency.

And I'll walk you through my reporting on how Donald Trump deals with the big choices he faces

as commander-in-chief as president of the United States, as a politician, that in a moment.

And then two great guests, Eric Bowling of Bowling.

Longtime host and journalists will join us along with Baja Ungarck Sargon,

my two-way colleague, the author, journalist, and co-host of the group chat on two-way.

And then a little later in the program, one of my favorite phrases for the media business,

a little later in the program, Michael Knowles, the host of the Michael Knowles Show,

Michael Knowles Show on The Daily Wire will be here. We'll talk to Michael about all manner of things. You'll be stunned,

shocked, delighted, and amazed at how much we have in common. All right, but first, my reported

monologue on choices, decisions. Every president has as their main job making tough decisions. Because the easy

ones get made by the staff. You'll talk to anyone who's been president of the United States,

any chief of staff at the White House, and they'll tell you, the biggest thing is every decision

that gets the Oval Office inbox is a tough one because of not. It would have been made by someone

else. George Bush famously been made by someone else.
