I am not so sure. I think trump might be using the media to toy with his tormentors and bait them into attacking him more. They attacked him, and his poll numbers shot up. Maybe he wants more of the same. If he has any advisors that are any good, they are contemplating more statements that he can make that are TRUE but will draw flack.
He must continue to hit those who are attacking him.
He must pound them to dust, on THIS subject.
Or, eventually the weight of the entire US power structure will be too much for anyone to bear.
No quarter.
Like I posted, he needs to drag the media back through every steaming pile of journalistic malpractice they have committed for the last three decades. One by one. Rub their noses in every damn one. I could make a list off the top of my head. Candy Crowley would certainly be a stop on the way. As much as they would hate it they would film every second. I don’t care why he is running if he truly loved America he would do it.
