The media have now moved on from Russia to cover themselves. And I doubt that's going to help their 14 percent approval rating. The American people see that they're trying to interfere with the president communicating directly through his very powerful social-media network channels, but also they notice that they don't cover the substance of the issues.

I mean, look, I know it's a heck of a lot easier to cover 140 characters here or there or what the president may be saying about the media here or there than it is to learn the finer points of how Medicaid is funded in this country and how that would or would not change under the Senate bill, how the child-care tax credit might affect your family. They don't cover these finer policy points.

And I've talked to a few over the weekend who called me unilaterally and say, “Well, we would cover that, Kellyanne, except the president did this and said that.” I think if you have a 24/7 cable news outlet or you're a network or you are a print reporter, you can probably cover all of the above. So everybody makes choices.

We went back and did an analysis. Roughly 163 tweets sent out by President Trump in June. Three-quarters of them, at least, had to do with policy, bilateral meetings, legislation.
