a) By HIS behavior means that he's pulling his own strings--not a puppet.
b) By HIS politics (not someone else's politics)--not a puppet.
c) By Fox News--in conjunction with a and b indicates that he and Fox News have similar views.

So a,b, and c indicate that Trump is pulling his own strings--not a puppet.
