Now we have a master troll who doesn't need the media... at all. He just goes right around them and talks directly to the people, as a real person would.

He makes the media dance every single day. He happens to be up at 3am, makes a tweet and then controls the news cycle for 3 days by prodding silly, hysterical people. They can't control the news anymore and the media and the left are freaking out every single day about it. At the same time, their ratings are plummeting.
If he were truly savvy about this, he would stop doing what he is doing and try to be more civil. All he is doing now is firing up the left and motivating them. A motivated left will turn out to vote.
