how harmful—to himself and in general—it is to keep uttering these kinds of Trumpian attacks on the media? He’s apparently not aiming his remarks at Fox News pundits but at mainstream media offering objective analyses of Super Tuesday and his campaig’s road to the nomination.

It shows either a lack of sense, or a tendency to go completely off the rails. Neither of which is what many want to see in a president.
