The news media has done a very good job investigating Trump. They have done a horrible job when questioning Trump. They should be ruthless and relentless when questioning Trump. For the most part they have been weak.
The news media will ask Trump, do you plan to pardon Manafort. That is a weak question. They should ask that question this way. Manafort is a criminal who may hold evidence that you may have committed crimes. Will you pardon him to protect yourself.

To top it off, he has favorable ratings with over 80% of Republicans.

(5,810 posts)He will puff himself up, jut out his jaw and give a withering reply, calling the person out as stupid or low IQ. He will insult them on camera and demonstrate to all the others that they will get the same treatment if they dare to do the same thing. Typical bullying tactics.
The journalist with access to the press conferences have not decided to collectively back one another by tenaciously sticking with a question one after another until he answers it. They know he is a stubborn, willful f**k who will dodge and weave and avoid giving a straight answer. And they will be targeted by him relentlessly. Ultimately, he can abruptly call the whole thing off and turn on his heel and leave. So they know it is a fine line before he decides he has had enough & stomps off stage.
In our fondest wish, wed like to see him crumble in the face of a press that will not let him off from answering questions honestly. However, he is a professional grade liar and narcissist. He is a card carrying member of Narcissist United, so he feels entitled to control the narrative and the situation. Only the long arm of the law will finally catch up to him, but even then I dont think it will shut him up. He will be using the same old tactics even as he is led away in prison orange and leg irons.
