In my opinion, that is what he wanted it to be. He wanted to clear up all the questions for his supporters. He is a confidence man and he had great confidence he could pull it off.
The reality-TV star knows how television works. He wanted to use it to his advantage by offering "Steffy" a weeks-worth of interviews. The Donald gave them an offer they couldn't refuse.
He disputed the poll results that "Steffy" quoted him. He called a time-out to call his campaign manager, Brad Parscale. The Narcissicist-in-Chief refused to believe that he was not ahead in all the polls.
But, did he answer all the questions for his supporters? Or did he just raise more questions for everyone else?

but I think this wannabe p t barnum will have an astounding "kick off" for the 2020 campaign. even greater than the gold plated escalator.

(32,086 posts)EVERYTHING he does is about his reelection campaign. It's kind of sad that ABC fell for it like that. Granted, from everything I'm seeing Trump came off looking like complete nutjob. Other networks are airing some of the more batcrap crazy stuff like the coughing incident and he poling claims. So, maybe ABC actually did the country a favor here, by showing those who haven't been paying attention that the guy in the White House is a mentally ill grifter. With any luck, it will have opened some eyes.
