Presidency is strangled by too much actionable information combined with the hubris of the office that something good and effective can be done about it.

Michael Hayden's "The End of Intelligence" op ed revealed that the President's daily intelligence briefing before Trump was up to sixty pages long. What is a President to do with daily briefing that tells you what? What Putin had for breakfast? That combined with the Atlantic's The Hardest Job in the World make the case that the Presidency is strangled by too much actionable information combined with the hubris of the office that something good and effective can be done about it.
