SkyBridge Capital Founder Describes President's Private Interactions

The founder of SkyBridge Capital offered a psychological portrait of the president on Saturday. He argued that critics and world leaders fundamentally misread the president's behavior. The founder said many people struggle to understand how the president reached the presidency because they have never met him in person.

"People can't figure out how the president got to the presidency because they've never been in a room with him," he wrote on X. He described the president as disarming, gregarious, and genuinely charming in person. This description contrasts with the president's more combative public image.

The founder, who previously served as White House communications director, highlighted the Canadian prime minister as a prime example of someone who may have misread the president.
