President Trump continued his blitz against major U.S. media outlets on Saturday, despite the wave of backlash that followed his particularly personal attack on a female MSNBC host this week.
Trump's very public duel with MSNBC's "Morning Joe," taking place over the course of several days this week, earned bipartisan pushback and frustration from some in his party who felt the back-and-forth distracted from the GOP legislative push to reform healthcare.
But on Saturday, Trump signaled that for him the battle is far from over. He also expanded his media targets.
