Trump is no longer trying to be President; he wants to be the champion of alt right news

Trump knows he has already lost any chance he had of winning the election. His "news conference" with four women who more than 20 years ago accused Bill Clinton of sexual improprieties has less to do with his campaign and everything with being the one who have a megaphone to these women. Up until now their stories were only pushed by alt right news outlets because the mainstream press avoided them based on the lack of merit of their stories.

With this "news conference" Trump is setting himself up as the champion of the alt right. He thinks that when he sets up his own news channel viewers of FOX News and other alt right media outlets will flock to it.
