The MSM has created Trump, and are working hard to keep his campaign alive.
If they wanted to harm him, all they would have to do is treat him the same way they treat Cruz, Carson, and Rubio. (ignore him, give him no face time)
Without the MSM, nobody would know Trump even exists.

TRumpets are all living in deep delusion.

Trump creates ratings. The MSM is NOT covering him out of the goodness of their little hearts.
You have it backwards. Donald Trump created his own celebrity. The media did not do it of their own volition, the media was simply a tool used by Donald Trump to grow his businesses, enhance his wealth, and enjoy his money.
The MSM predicted Trump would fail... many times. After each non PC comment, the press - in unison would say, 'he's finished'. Remember that after the debate? After his comment about McCain... after his comment about Rosie... after his comment about illegals, after his comment about anchor babies, after his run-in with Jorge?
The list goes on and on...
The press did their opposition research, their PC weirdness, their jokes and Trump still stands.
Something's different.
“Without the MSM, nobody would know Trump even exists.”
Actually, IMO, the advantage that Trump has over all the GOP candidates, and every Rat candidate not named PIOPS, is that everyone already knows his name. Even the low info. voters know who he is. His name recognition is huge. The MSM is just adding on to that recognition total.
