I've never seen media work so hard to convince everyone that Trump said something he didn't say. The really funny part is if you watched the press ask him those questions, the first guy accused Trump of being overly optimistic regarding Easter and two questions later another nitwit accused him of being too pessimistic about another set of numbers. You can’t make this stuff up! These so-called journalists are hacks! 2

A grown man should be more judicious when he rightly points out a discrepancy in coverage and corrects major misrepresentations. A childish thin narcissist does that, and takes time of of his day to pick petty fights with reporters, comment on Avenatti's tweets or brag about his TV ratings. Why continue to provide ammo to his enemies? 2

Why continue to provide ammo to his enemies? This is what gets me. He could still substantively push back but when he starts talking about ratings or brings the discussion back to him, that's where he loses some people. If he could just not be so narcissistic, he would do himself lots of favors. 1 1

Why continue to provide ammo to his enemies? Yes, he should be. But, there's not a chance that he will be. His enemies should be able to take those and run with them. But, they end up just as, if not somehow moreso though prior to seeing it it would seem impossible to be moreso, childish as he gets. Imagine how many political science dissertations will be written about their dynamic. And further, imagine just how many still won't understand what happened even through the lens of hindsight. 2

Why continue to provide ammo to his enemies? His tweets to me are a mild annoyance but it is effective because he shows how much the media lies. I am not on Twitter and would never know about his tweets except for people trying to discredit him.

That way he can point out their gotcha questions and just move on. 3

The lamestream media types are turds, and he talks to them on their level; that of petulant children. He’s the parent putting the whiny child in their place. They can’t stand that Trump is president, and their miserable lives revolve around this fact. This is a war between loony libs and the rest of the country.

That's not the audience he should be playing to. His message should be tailored to the wide swath in the middle that either doesn't love him or hate him.

Maybe, but his strategy seems to be otherwise. The base will love it, the haters will hate ( weren’t getting them anyway) and the middle will decide based on the enormous difference in policy ideas. It’s not like the two parties vision for the country is even remotely similar. In more normal times, playing to the middle might be a better strategy. 1

The message should be for the non-haters and non-lovers. He can easily win over an additional 40% of the population just by not being a childish dunce.

I just think the country is so divided I don't think the percentage of non decided is anywhere close to 40%. 1
