For Donald Trump, little is more intoxicating and affirming of his own power than creating tornadoes and watching them tear across the landscape.
In the space of just 24 hours this week, the president-elect set off cyclones near and far that preview the drama he seems likely to bring to the White House.
Trump summoned two dozen television executives and news anchors to his offices Monday to berate them as dishonest and disobedient. He sought to strong-arm the British government to appoint his Brexit ally, Nigel Farage, as ambassador to the United States. He dropped his threat to prosecute Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton, disregarding his lock her up campaign chant and incurring the wrath of some reliable supporters.
Then there was Tuesdays meeting with The New York Times, the newspaper Trump loves to mock as failing. It was scheduled, then canceled, then rescheduled. And once the president-elect settled in at the Grey Ladys boardroom, he softened his position on climate change, floated the idea that his son-in-law could broker peace in the Middle East, voiced new doubts about the effectiveness of torturing terrorism suspects, savaged Republicans who wavered on his candidacy and left unresolved concerns about how or even whether he would disassociate himself from his global business holdings to avoid conflicts of interest.
Whew.

TRUMP LIED!!!
I'm not tired of winning :)
when he says that he will not seek to prosecute her
he’s using “ clintonian phrasing”. Of course “ He” won’t do it..... The AG /DOJ and cleaned up FBI will finally do their job....
Nothing better than using the enemies tactics on them ....
The President doesn't prosecute anybody.....that is what the Attorney General and DOJ are for. All he as to do is be sure that those two political entities are staffed with people who actually enforce the laws.
No problem... we can just use the updated version of “It’s Bush’s fault”
Worked for Obummer for about 6 years...:^)
They’re all (media) drama queens.
More like a “booming industry” in COFFINS. MSM is DEAD.
