Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Obama And Trump

There is no secret that Trump sees his entire purpose as overturning and undermining Obama at every step.  It's therefore not surprising to see his media management style is also directly opposed to Obama.  The Obama Administration famously did not care about the 24 hour news cycle.  To them, "winning the day" was pointless; winning the argument was everything.

Trump, of course, is about "winning the day," with predictably disastrous results.
