since the day he declared his candidacy, donald trump hasn’t once done anything in small steps, nor has he avoided a single fight with the media (he has done the contrary probably a hundred times), and he has endlessly decried the notion of winning politically through half measures.

I don’t know the guy you’re describing. it certainly isn’t donald trump.

why is he picking DACA to become some other person ?

Statements and implementing policy are different subjects. And if you’d paid attention to his actual policies instead of the media’s blowups about them, then you’d know that all of Trump’s policy changes have been incremental while doing quite a few of them in many areas at once.

Trump’s not afraid of the media, but he’s also smart enough to know that small reasonable changes that the media blows up at are easier to do and it makes it much harder for the media to generate outrage when he pushes the much less popular changes through. Incremental policy changes are how you win.
