Trump felt like everyone must want to hear from me and ONLY I can fix it. This lead to the daily embarrassments that were the press conferences, complete with him crowding in to stay on screen. Those daily ass showings were incredibly damaging. People got a good look at who he is right in their living rooms. That’s when his numbers really started going south.

From there he was just sure he’d do great with the Axios interview and had already completed the Woodward late night booty call sessions. More Trump = more problems FOR EVERYONE.
