Did you catch Donald Trump’s Monday press conference at Mar-a-Lago?  It is Must See TV, a perfect illustration of the president-elect’s standing right now as, in the words of Van Jones, ‘the most powerful human on earth and in our lifetime.’

In contrast, the reporters who questioned Trump were relatively mild-mannered and meek, mere shadows of their former arrogant selves.  There was no Jim Acosta, whose displays of disrespect turned him into a left-wing idol.  Hostility may return after the inauguration, but right now, the press corps resembles frightened turtles.
