Those who love him will watch and those who hate him watch because they want to keep track of what he's up to. At least some of us, anyway. And then there are those who regard this train wreck as entertainment. You can't turn away because you never know what he'll do next!

I usually change the channel when he shows up, couldn't wait or the campaign to be over so I could start watching the news again.
