Trump manipulates the media.

How does he get the media off his trail about the taxes and his financial deals with suspected criminals AND on to another subject matter?

Refuse to say that Obama was born in America. That will surely distract them for a while, at least until something else comes along.

He doesn't want them on his trail.
