Why Hasn't Trump received any real backlash from the MSM on his birther blitz?

Because no one takes Trump seriously. He's a self-promoting reality-show personality, nothing more, and is not perceived as a credible threat.

That’s what I was thinking in my post -— the MSM attacks only those that they really fear. there have been a few snarky remarks but nothing major.

“He’s a self-promoting reality-show personality, nothing more...”

Nothing more? He developed a large chain or restaurants and real estate all over New York and the East Coast before any ‘reality show.’ His or any other. He’s been a self-made billionaire for at least a quarter century.

US mainstream media is based in NYC. They do NOT consider hi a buffoon. And they sure as hell don’t have the guts to cross him. They don’t have to ‘like’ him, but they would underestimate him at their own peril.
