(CNN) And just like that, everything is back to abnormal.

A night after delivering his Afghanistan plan in mostly sober, if not particularly illuminating language , President Donald Trump entertained his core supporters in Phoenix with a medley of the fiery, at times petulant and uncannily digressive rhetoric he rode to the White House last year.

The two Trumps dynamic should be, by now, a familiar one. A few winking flourishes aside, Trump on Monday night stuck to the script. But only a little more than 24 hours after he wrapped up at Fort Myer in Arlington, Virginia, Trump returned to his natural state -- campaign mode, complete with protracted media bashing and a mostly forgotten teleprompter -- at a booming rally in Arizona.

Let's review.

Teleprompter Trump: salutes camaraderie in the military

"You're taxpaying Americans who love our nation, obey our laws, and care for our people. It's time to expose the crooked media deceptions, and to challenge the media for their role in fomenting divisions. And yes, by the way -- and yes, by the way, they are trying to take away our history and our heritage. You see that. And I say it, and you know, we're all pros. We're all, like, we have a certain sense. We're smart people. These are truly dishonest people. And not all of them. Not all of them. You have some very good reporters. You have some very fair journalists. But for the most part, honestly, these are really, really dishonest people, and they're bad people. And I really think they don't like our country. I really believe that. And I don't believe they're going to change, and that's why I do this. If they would change, I would never say it. The only people giving a platform to these hate groups is the media itself, and the fake news."

Is that OK? But Sheriff Joe can feel good."

Teleprompter Trump: allows that he questioned his own assumptions

"My original instinct was to pull out. And historically, I like following my instincts. But all my life I've heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the Oval Office, in other words, when you're president of the United States."

Rally Trump: threatens a government shutdown if he doesn't get a border wall
