Getting the story straight and focusing attention where I want it
Why can't a FEDERAL agency just do as they're told by their President FFS!? Was it so much to "ask" them to discredit stories about Russian links and help draw a line under all the accusations? The fact that they refused has only added fuel to that particular fire. I can only hope it dies down under the distraction of my battles with the press, past presidencies and the free world in general. Otherwise who knows who they'll pick on next!
Speaking of the Press. It's time the British Badmouthing Corporation and the National Bullshit Corporation felt a practical edge to my displeasure. A press conference to which they're explicitly excluded should do the job and remind them who's really in charge here. On that note, I'll drive home my point by boycotting the Annual Correspondent's Dinner "on principle" and give them cause to reflect on recent issues. Members of the public are actively vilifying the press now so that's a measure of my success in undermining confidence in the press and referring people to my much better informed and accurate tweets etc.
Putting environmental issues on the back-burner and promoting US steel and other corporations has Wall Street thriving and showing much more confidence and support for this administration than US and international public opinion. But we're not here to be popular, we're here to do a job. And I've made that clear.
Although the immigration ban is on hold, immigration enforcement and deportations are progressing well. Of course there are sob stories going about but they're all criminals if only by virtue of being illegal immigrants so I can rightly claim to be getting rid criminal illegal immigrants.
I need to prepare my first address to Congress. Having taken a tough - even aggressive - stance across the board I'll have everyone's attention. My critics will predict "an unstatesmanlike approach" so the stage is set to undermine their comments and establish my presidential persona by being warm and positive.
Then, if I reinforce that new persona by not tweeting any more complaints against media coverage - for now - that should deny them any more ammunition.
But that'll leave a news void and that's never a good thing - especially with the Russian thing still alive. I need a diversion..... if only somebody would inform me about some act of Democrat spying then I can make that the next headline....
