I was fine when Trump said he consulted with himself on foreign policy.

Scripture says there is wisdom in many counselors. At the end of the day, I want Trump listening, but I want Trump deciding. I think a lot of the counselors get so wrapped up in minutia that they miss the forest for the trees.

A wise man will hear and increase in learning, and a man of understanding will acquire wise counsel. (Proverbs 1:5)

• Instruct a wise man and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man and he will add to his learning. (Proverbs 9:9)

• The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction. (Proverbs 1:7)

• Where there is no guidance, the people fall, but in abundance of counselors there is victory. (Proverbs 11:14)

• The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man is he who listens to counsel. (Proverbs 12:15)

• Through presumption comes nothing but strife, but with those who receive counsel is wisdom. (Proverbs 13:10)

• He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. (Proverbs 13:20)

• Without consultation, plans are frustrated, but with many counselors they succeed. (Proverbs 15:22)
