The press gave him billions of dollars of free coverage and publicity when he was running and they are culpable again. Trump does this in order to monopolize the news cycle on a daily basis just to garner attention and take the focus off of really important issues and his incompetence, corruption and scandals. Trump does not care what he says or does because he really stands for nothing. He does what he does because his dumbed-down reality TV show gave him his training and this grifter will do and say anything to stay relevant and enrich himself.

What if no one shows up for his snake oil smoke and mirrors show and no one dedicates even one post to him. No one should even respond to Twitler's twitter feed. He would curl up in a fat orange ball and croak.

Monopolize the main stream media is something that is also done in part with all this media consolidation that has gone on the past few years.

He's the President. How can they not cover him? The sitting President always has the power of the incumbency. Don't like it? Find a better candidate to run against him.

How much of your time do you give him?

C'mon - the networks are profiting off of him as well.

They are not covering his rallies any more. For this, I am very grateful. They must have gotten the message that their viewers do not want to see or hear this guy.

If they would just stop covering his moronic 'press conferences' I would be even happier.

I'm so tired of fast forwarding through his insipid whining, bleating and lying.

If the media stopped all coverage on Trump that would be a dream come true because then the constant barrage they hurl against him would stop and just possibly the American people could see through the dissipating smoke of their propaganda and realize that Trump is not that bad after all and if they are honest they would have to admit that America as a whole is better off than it was during the last term of Obama.



If the media stopped reporting on Trump the negativity that is afflicting America would also stop and people would become happy again.
