Jon Meacham, the author of "American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House," on MSNBC's Morning Joe this morning:
- President Trump told him, a year ago, that he could have struck a deal to prevent the Civil War.
- Meacham described yesterday's Jackson kerfuffle as a projection of Trump's "fundamental and enveloping narcissism."
- The kicker: Meacham said he and Trump talked last year about presidents the then-candidate admired, and "Jackson never came up".
