Funny that most of the media covers for Trump and promotes him nonstop. Including Megyn.
Megyn promotes Trump?
You’ve got a different idea of promotion than I do.
They cover him because he’s legitimate news and a draw for ratings, but their coverage is slanted and trying to bring him down.

Though Trump has not promoted a flat tax, he has favored low rates. And, in reality most flat-tax supporters advocate for different types of exemptions that in effect result in different rates for the lowest and highest incomes, too.
The stimulus and auto bailout were bad economic ideas, no doubt. But most of his support for Obama’s initiatives was right at the start of his first term, when he had the approval of three-quarters of the country and it was seen as racist not to be behind him.
The thing about Trump is that he’s been a NYC businessman opining on politics in public, without being a politician, for decades. He’s much too much of a pragmatist rather than a philosophical purist for my tastes. But he also has been an advocate of some pretty conservative principles too. If he comes out with a cost-cutting, economy-boosting economic platform in the details and he sustains his popularity such that he can win, I’ll support him.
The fact is that we don’t have a philosophic purist running and we’ve got a lot of GOPe candidates who aren’t nearly as effective in reaching the electorate as Trump.
This blog post is a one-sided cherry picking of what Trump has said over decades that isn’t economically conservative—it doesn’t provide all that he has said that does represent conservative economic ideals—or the largely conservative positions he has promoted in his books, such as Time to Get Tough.
I’m not backing a candidate that the GOP Establishment wants, and if Trump does, as I suspect, roll out a conservative economic platform, I’m with him.
For example, he is pro-amnesty like all of the GOP (and Democrat) candidates. But there, as I suspect he will with the economy, he has a better plan than the alternatives, which is how I’m anticipating his economic plan will be as well.

You forgot to put the /sarcasm tag on.
Not so funny. They love his stratospheric negatives, they know he isn't electable, and even if he is elected, he will build the wall but do everything else exactly the way the Democrats will.
