He usually goes off the rails during these. I can't stand to watch, but I'll read about it later.

The strategy is probably to make some big announcement that will take the headlines away from Nunberg. But in the middle, randomly, he'll go off script and say something else incredibly stupid which will create the buzz for the next news cycle.

Hillary is still crooked and belongs in jail. He won by largest measure ever. Pennsylvania would be best not to vote for a Godless liberal that would force you to be gay, take away your guns, force abortions, and let criminals run loose. MAGA by trading with nobody unless Trumpgets himself, er...the U.S. a good deal. Fake News.

Something like that.

He alone has forced N Korea to beg for mercy. Greatest president EVER! Gosh what a wonderful deal-maker. His tariffs will be a big big success too. Just you wait and see. *snark*

A chance for Trumpy to pat himself on the back and look pleased as his sycophant's clap? OR

The announcement of some poorly thought out and possibly unconstitutional policy to be quietly dropped later in the week? OR

A crazy amount of projection, blaming Obama, Orpah, and Clinton?

To begin soon at the base of the Washington monument. He will strongly urge Blacks and Hispanics to volunteer. And maybe a few gays. It will be a great honor to them to bow before hi his golf club and receive their reward. This will go over so well with his base. Fox will crow he is the greatest president evuh.

He'll probably field just two questions, and try for friendly outlets if he can.

It's been over a year since he's held a formal, full length solo press conference. Although there was the impromptu one in August at Trump Tower where he called white nationalists "very fine people".

are saying good things about your meatballs.
Obama never had such a good reciprocal relationship with Sweden.
Sad!
Reciprocal!
