He'll double down, reverse course, call them nasty, then come up with a diversion.
and the press will move on.

This is his way of deflecting from his attempts at being Fearless Leader when they go awry.

The White House press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, on Friday said the news media had taken President Donald Trump's statements on Thursday when he said the US should investigate whether injecting disinfectant into people's bodies might cure COVID-19 out of context to run negative stories.
"President Trump has repeatedly said that Americans should consult with medical doctors regarding coronavirus treatment, a point that he emphasized again during yesterdays' briefing," McEnany said in a statement. "Leave it to the media to irresponsibly take President Trump out of context and run with negative headlines."

Not that it wasn't clear to most long ago. But since they haven't stopped before they can stop NOW. Today.
