What can President Trump do to fight back against the media’s incessant focus on Russia?
Red Alert Politics Editor Ron Meyer joined Fox Business’ Coast to Coast with Neil Cavuto to discuss Trump’s media strategy. Meyer suggested, “Trump needs to rope-a-dope the media.”
Rope-a-dope? What is that?
Meyer explains, “Mohammad Ali popularized this term ‘rope-a-dope,’ and that’s when you let your opponent punch themselves out and get tired. And then, you wait for the opportune moment to punch back.”
“The problem is with President Trump right now is that he is always trying to counter-punch the media right away. The media is going to go after this Russia thing, and they’re going to keep going after it. Let them. Then, you stay focused on what you were elected to do — that is fix the economy, repeal and replace Obamacare, build the wall,” Meyer said.
“If you focus on that agenda and that agenda alone, if you focus your tweets, your press conferences, your speeches on that agenda alone — you will succeed. We saw that last week with his speech.”
