On Trump and TV

Trump is often referred to as a “reality show president,” and with good reason.  The constant drama, the deliberate use of cliffhangers, and the constant churn of characters are all characteristics of reality shows.

There are other TV influences in his presidency, however.  His use of his Twitter feed to trigger the libs and reinforce the bond with his base sounds a lot like regular Fox News programming.  Call it “Trump & Friends.”
