Donald Trump can only stay focused on intelligence reports if his name is
in them, according to officials close to him.

Staff members are being forced to strategically include the President's
name in the reports to ensure that he keeps reading and doesn't get
distracted, they said. National Security Council officials make sure "as
many paragraphs as we can because he keeps reading if he's mentioned",
they told Reuters.

The trick is part of a range of techniques developed by officials to keep
Mr Trump's infamously short attention span focused on important
information.

Officials have also learnt to keep all reports to a single page, and to
include as many pictures, maps, charts and graphs as possible.

The President also likes to look at a map of wherever he is reading about,
officials said.
