BostonGlobe | President Donald Trump mounted a vigorous defense of his presidency
Thursday, pushing back against media reports that his campaign advisers
had inappropriate contact with Russian officials and vowing to crack
down on the leaking of classified information.
Nearly a month into
his presidency, Trump said in a free-wheeling White House news
conference that his new administration had made ‘‘significant progress’’
and took credit for an optimistic business climate and a soaring stock
market.
The president denounced media reports of a chaotic start to his
administration marked by a contentious executive order — now tied up in a
legal fight — to place a ban on travelers from seven predominantly
Muslim nations.
‘‘This administration is running like a fine-tuned
machine,’’ Trump declared. He said he would announce a ‘‘new and very
comprehensive order to protect our people.’’
