At 6.36am on a busy working morning, what better things does Donald Trump have to do than begin tweeting that all is not chaos around him?

A few minutes later, at around 7.13am, he turned his attention to the New York Times, one of his frequent targets for tweets, rebukes and insults.
"The failing @nytimes story is so totally wrong on transition. It is going so smoothly. Also, I have spoken to many foreign leaders."
