Actually, what he really did was expose the fools for what they are, self-centered.
Self-Centered.
They thought Trump really DID want to talk about their agenda. It's the ultimate. Play your enemy.
I don't know if enough people are giving this move credit for what it achieved. This has caused a LOT of anger on both sides of the media. One one hand, the big players refuse to talk about it, alt-media are having a field day, and Trump clobbers the media, line David and Goliath.
Yeah, I think this move was big. I can see this being a marker on a timeline in future history classes.
I think he will actually be able to get a lot done
and really starting to look like a class act.
They've been smashed to pieces and now he is very clearly focused on what he will do for all Americans.

Huh.
I don't really see that. I'm mean, he says a lot about what "we" are going to do, but not so much about how. About how he's going to convince Congress. About how he's going to pay for it while cutting taxes for "all Americans" at the same time.

“During that meeting, Mr. Blumenthal and I met together in my office and he strongly urged me to investigate the exact place of President Obama’s birth, which he suggested was in Kenya. We assigned a reporter to go to Kenya, and that reporter determined that the allegation was false. “At the time of Mr. Blumenthal’s conversation with me, there had been a few news articles published in various outlets reporting on rumors about Obama’s birthplace.
While Mr. Blumenthal offered no concrete proof of Obama’s Kenyan birth, I felt that, as journalists, we had a responsibility to determine whether or not those rumors were true. They were not.”
