His effusiveness is to his detriment, pretty consistently. It would have been best to let people complain and move on.

He has literally pulled off the impossible and yet people still have the gall to question if he knows what he's doing

He's right even if you don't want him to say so.

More truth from Our President! The fake media is so dishonest and TRUMP will never win with them. They will always be against him and U.S.

He played to the fears and ignorance of rural America, and they fell for it. His win was no great accomplishment it was an indictment of how stupid American voters are.

Hillary Clinton winning the popular vote is an indictment of how stupid American voters are.

Thank goodness we have the Electoral College.

I appreciate Trump’s willingness to push back against a dishonest media. But in this case it's inappropriate and makes him look totally tone deaf. It comes off as playing the victim.

"I amended my initial statement about violence and a citizen dying. But the media has it out for me and won't be satisfied. Soo...things are pretty tough for me too"

Bad look.

The media is going to be against literally everything he says or does. Like I said, I appreciate his willingness to push back but there are times when the best response is to rise above their pettiness.

Complain that he didn't make a strong enough statement

Demand he make a stronger statement
