Mr. Summers: Stop blaming the media when Trump creates his own problems. Trump did not have to make any additional comments about Charlottesville on Tuesday when doing his infrastructure news conference from Trump Tower. Instead he lacks the self-discipline and temperment to not answer the questions about it and then gets himself into more trouble, embarrasses his cabinet members and chief of staff, and loses his agenda of talking about infrastructure.
While all the birther movement stuff about Obama went on led by Trump, Obama only publicly commented on it twice. Once was a news conference where he produced a copy of his birth certificate to dismiss the silly rumour and the second was the White House Correspondent's dinner where Trump was present where he demonstrated Trump's silliness in front of him.  He had the temperament and self-discipline to not respond all the time to silly issues.
Trump could solve most of his so called media issues by not tweeting and stop criticizing people
