Head of the White House assistants regularly pointed to this problem, but it arose "on a permanent basis". "It was not easy for him to explain that the leader of the country, who is about 80-85 years old, is not always awake at 10:30 am or at 11:00 local time," the Politico newspaper quotes the ex-representative of the National Security Council.

"When he wants to call someone (. ), he is extremely impulsive in such cases. And he does not think about how much time it is now, "the source said.. Meanwhile, the catastrophe with calls at an inopportune time is only part of the presidential blunders.
