Yep. He still doesn't get it 8 years after he left office and he likely never will. He fricked up on actual policy sure but the media made damn sure he would have no chance of using any political capital he had for meaningful policy that still had a chance of succeeding.

Donald Trump's administration will not be making the same mistake Dubya's did with the media.
