When will it stop? Trump get all the attention no matter what. Pre-election to now. Constantly on TV

for hours. When Obama or any democrat visited the afflicted, the hungry, the poor, whatever, there might have been a short blip and a photograph but every second of Trump in Texas is wall to wall coverage. I can't stand the discrepancy! Obama and Michelle were always doing good deeds and were not often recognized for it let alone given wall to wall second by second coverage. Ugggggggg11111

How do you know that Trump is on television now? Because you're watching?

Television "news" is in the business of selling a product, which product is not news, but, rather, viewers who watch advertisements. Those running television "news" operations have determined that televising Trump increases viewership, therefore they televise Trump as much as possible.

That's all this is. That's all this has ever been.
