I think Groper Don the Con wants to be his own Communications Director

because his image as President is the most important thing in his life.
He does not give a flying fuck about anything else.
His reality TV program will now be fake press conferences - you betcha.

1) He misses the adulation of the campaign trail and
2) He thinks that going back to what worked for him on the campaign will work for him now. He was down in the polls during the campaign, refused to follow the advice of his aides and did what he wanted, and he won. In his baby mind, he's probably seeing a corollary here and thinks going at it his own way will work again.
