Trump knows that the MSM is trying to goad him into making an apology. Once Trump apogizes, the narrative changes from bold and brash to apologetic and wrongful. Then the MSM will use that to continue to hound Trump to apologize over everything else he will say in the future.

Trump should understand that the MSM marches to an always advancing clock, and time will move on to the next issue. This will pass by, unless Trump gives them the excuse to keep making it a story. A media-coerced apology would be that excuse. Just ask Trent Lott how it works.

Yup. Trump is running this media show. And lovin’ every minute of it. And getting a billion dollars worth of publicity for free.

Jeb who?

Trump won’t be sucker punched by the MSM. Of all the candidates, Trump is by far the most media savvy. He won’t be snookered by them, not to fear. He already stymied the MSM who have been badgering Trump about the McCain comment by doing something else even more “outrageous”, namely giving out Lindsey Grahamnesty’s cell phone number. Now everyone is talking about that (and laughing about it) so that the McCain comment made by Trump fades away, now a dead end subject and the Media couldn’t lay a hand on him. The Donald is real crafty, Wiley Coyote.
