Light bulb...or DUH...moment
I've been struggling with understanding why the cable news channels cover Trump 24/7, even to the exclusion of actual news. For a long time I thought it was kind of like the assassination pool camera that follows presidents at all times, so as not to miss any attempts. The constant coverage disgusted me for a long time, but I read something today that finally turned on that light bulb above my little head. I read today that Trump gets most or all of his information from cable tv. MSNBC, CNN and FAUX now believe they're controlling the narrative of the election through feeding information to Trump and thereby controlling him.
How stupid am I, on a scale of 1 - 10?
