No, I don’t trust polls, and Trump himself said he had no need for them but for quoting them.
I trust momentum, but you know, that could be cut off in a single moment if the cameras pull off of Trump coverage. He has them in a spot, because covering him increases their ratings.
What would happen to Trump if there were to come a Pravda-like induced blackout on him? Yikes!
I hear ya. But I think the profit motive (and his name recognition) is enough to keep them covering Trump.
It’s easier to suppress things that people aren’t familiar with, like the Planned Parenthood scandal.
Everybody knows Trump, and if an outlet tried to downplay the coverage, people would go looking for it elsewhere.
