I think you give Trump far too much credit. Only a couple days ago, he confused the Baltics with the Balkans. I struggle to believe he has the mental wherewithal to conduct a sophisticated media operation from his Twitter account.

A lot of people say that he "manipulates the media", as though he's some genius puppetmaster. I have yet to see him actually manipulate the media outside of simply being controversial, which requires little intelligence, and in any case has frequently backfired on him.

If Trump is a master at anything, it's appealing to stupid people. He can connect with them on a deeply personal level (probably because he thinks like they do). "The secret of the demagogue is to convince the people they are as clever as he by making himself as stupid as them."
