Why does the mainstream media love Donald Trump?

The mainstream media is finally coming around to the fact that Donald J Trump may not want to be president of the United States.  I write about this in my book.  Actually, I wrote this section of the book about eight or nine months ago.

I never understood why the media didn't start alluding to the fact that he wasn't really a serious candidate a long time ago.  They knew that he was a narcissist who loves being in front of a camera almost as much as he loves being in front of a mirror.  They also knew that he loves to make outlandish statements strictly for the sake of self promotion.

But the media loved the gravy train that they were riding on.  Ratings and readership were up and that's all that mattered.  Now, Trump's statements are nothing more than self destructive and the gravy train is coming to a stop.  It was inevitable that any love affair that burned so hot was destined to burn out.  Now the media has to start talking about politics and the country.
