re: I loved Trump's afternoon presser but it's time for Trump to focus on his agenda

I am not one to admire Trumps lack of tact and lack of grace in general, but I think what a lot of people are missing is that it is becoming impossible to execute an agenda due to the very fact that the media is so adamantly subverting his presidency.
I personally have a problem with the media never giving the guy a chance along with the hard left, but since the election he really has brought a lot of it on himself with some of the cabinet appointees, the poorly executed EO, and this Flynn-Russia shite.
Also, I want to like the guy but he makes it so hard with his pathetic need to constantly bolster his ego. Shut the frick up about the goddamn EC, your fricking Apprentice ratings, and how you're litter better than everyone at everything. Its so off putting.

When the hyenas get too close, the lion must swat down a couple of them.

If there's one thing I believe Trump does understand better than anything, it's leverage. Yesterday was Trumps attempt at regaining leverage so that he could even begin to refocus on his agenda. The press has many Americans convinced he's bordering on impeachment.
The two go hand in hand.
I agree, he's plenty smart but not a wordsmith. Right now the MSM is still pretty powerful but wounded.
Their undoing would be Trump ignoring them at this point because every time he speaks the MSM has hoards of Leftists ready to twist and remove context from anything he says. He should let his hired guns handle the daily dirty work with the MSM.

The delay was worthwhile for Devos, Sessions and Pudzer at least. Especially the former because of the dishonest way McConnell wasted time by setting up the initial hearings for before the nominees had completed the ethics forms.
Dems need to start playing a bit nicer and save up some capital for Gorsuch.

maybe Media reform is part of his agenda. Trump has built his entire campaign on returning the power to the people. It's clear he wants to expose the hypocrisy of the media to the general public.
The world would be a lot better if we just got straight forward news without any left or right spin. May make for boring television but the news shouldn't be built around entertainment factor.

It's called multitasking and the MAGA Emperor is pretty damn good at it.

See I disagree. I think Trump actually comes across as more likeable this way than being silent.
By remaining silent you can give the impression that you're guilty, and it allows the press to build up a caricature like they have Bannon.

If he's a 4D chess player ignoring the MSM would be 4D chess.
Look the MSM had this strategy of fricking with Trump daily since he won the primary and it did not work against HRC because she was complete trash but now the MSM/Dims are getting traction with the American people by antagonizing the POTUS daily and he is feeding their narratives by reacting to nearly every attack by the MSM.
He needs to let the MSM hear crickts for awhile and watch these douche bags panic, hell the POTUS can always revert back to his previous strategy if this does not work, we have to keep these MSM scum guessing and off balance.
