It's one long game of Gotcha, a game Americans are tired of playing. Americans are worried about jobs, health care, crime, immigration...the usual things. The media is worried about playing Gotcha. Our local paper leads with Trump Hate every day which is why we quit paying for it. Their numbers are so far in the hole, they deliver it anyway. They just deliver it really late.
That's why news ratings are plummeting. It's why people like me have switched over to BBC World Service on radio. When the morning radio news mentions Trump in any way, I switch to Sports. People are fatigued by all the negativity.
