Trump’s ‘Flood the Zone’ Strategy Also Involves a Lot of Mopping Up

The article discusses the Trump administration's "flood the zone" strategy, which involves overwhelming the public with a constant barrage of information, initiatives, and controversies. This approach has had both advantages and disadvantages for the president. On one hand, it has made it difficult for Democrats and the media to keep up and effectively counter the administration's agenda. The sheer volume of information and events has made it challenging to focus on any one issue. However, the strategy has also led to significant challenges within the White House itself. The constant activity has overwhelmed the administration's resources and created a chaotic environment, requiring extensive "mopping up" efforts to address the fallout from the president's actions. The article suggests that while the "flood the zone" approach may have been effective in the short term, it has ultimately led to a state of disarray and confusion, making it increasingly difficult for the administration to achieve its long-term goals.
