Chris Cillizza: I Still Can't "Wrap My Mind" Around A Trump Presidency

<i>Washington Post</i>'s Chris Cillizza, admitting "many" of the "assumptions" he made about Trump were wrong, said Wednesday he still can not "wrap my mind" around a Trump presidency during a discussion about the president-elect's cabinet and incoming administration on MSNBC. "When I look at those scenes of Trump Tower and all the traffic I'm still stunned by someone who lives in a high rise building he built in the middle of Manhattan, was able to capture a populist anger at elites in the establishment in this country," Cillizza said. "That is a feat that is still, you know, I guess we're now eight days later hard for me to wrap my mind around," Cillizza acknowledged. Cillizza also called for Trump to hold a press conference, he said it is "past time." He noted how Hillary Clinton opened up to the press, while Trump "clammed up" toward the end of the campaign. The <i>Washington Post</i> scribe said holding one would do Trump a "world of good" given the way he has treated the media.
