Trump campaign does damage control after disastrous press conference

Donald Trump’s team is doing damage control after his disastrous Thursday press conference. His performance at the “self-announced” event was rambling, incoherent, and downright weird—unless you’re a MAGA true believer, of course. 

“This is a disciplined campaign,” Karoline Leavitt, the Trump campaign’s national press secretary, told Fox News shortly after the press conference ended. “And we’re disciplined because we are led by President Trump, who wakes up every day and focuses on the issues that matter to the American people.” 

One of those “issues that matter to the American people” seems to have been Trump’s claim that he spoke to a larger crowd on Jan. 6, 2021, than Martin Luther King Jr. did during his famous “I Have a Dream” speech.
