Stable and reliable beats fun an exciting when you have the nuke codes. The man just can't seem to pivot to the role. This entire weekend was taken by hi m trying to insist he crowd was bigger than Obama's crowd. He can't keep let himself get baited like that. He can't respond to every insult and let himself get drawn off course by the constant ankle biters. The problem is I see no evidence that he can do that.
He should have gracefully acknowledged the historic nature of the Obama administration and the unprecedented crowds it drew. Instead he presented alternate facts and looks the fool. I am glad he is willing to fight the press but he needs to learn to pick his battles and stop being so damn reactionary.
