Donald Trump insisted that he had “inherited a mess” in his most vociferous defence of his presidency to date during a wide-ranging 75 minute impromptu press conference on Thursday.
Mr Trump claimed his administration was operating like a “fine-tuned machine” and railed against claims to the contrary during a conference initially intended as an introduction for his new cabinet nominee.
He jolted from anger, to humour to defiance, saying that while he knew the headlines would read that he had “ranted and raved” he was actually enjoying himself throughout the unorthodox performance.
He also declined to criticise Vladimir Putin for stepping up his aggression toward the US, saying he believed negative media coverage had convinced Mr Putin that a potential “deal” was off.

For 75 minutes he went on and on and on about nothing important . not even about the reason he was even having a press conference the introduction for his new cabinet nominee.
The closest he came to touching on ant thing of interst to the avergae American voter was when he blamed the media for missing up any chance he thinks he had to make nice with his russia buddy.
