    Whose strategy is it to "amp up the chaos to unseen levels"?
    You think the media is the one hiring and firing all those people in the WH?

    I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, and then you flushed it down the toilet.

    If you think Trump is purposely "amping up chaos" by firing people solely for the purpose of drawing attention to himself, you are you completely out of your gourd. Why would he need to do that? If a ball of yarn was president, it would still be followed by two dozen cameras and 50 reporters all day every day.

    I used to look daily for news of what that fuckwit was up to, now I can barely be bothered to check in on a weekly basis. Show's still worth a watch once in a while, but it's not topping my charts any more.
    Who has skin in the game to change this? Who benefits if you watch more?

    You realize this is a joke thread and I'm just talking shit right?

    You can relax now. I'm not really of the opinion Trump thinks he is doing the apprentice spin off.

    It is funny though how you changed the topic from who hired and fired all those people to who benefits from people watching cable news.

    It's the same topic. The turnover in the WH is not particularly surprising. The promise was "drain the swamp". Alot of the people you named,
    are swamp monsters. For fuck's sake, the guy is famous for saying "you're fired". This is one of those things, like Trump's history with women, that everyone knew before the election, and he still won. So it's fraudulent to be shocked by it now, or describe it as chaos.

    using words like "chaos" and "bombshell firing" have very little to do with descriptive accuracy and alot more to do with generating clicks.

    So the premise of this thread, that Trump's WH is like a reality show, is more the fault of the media and not Trump.

    He hired most of those people himself.

    Just because it's par for the course doesn't mean it's not chaos. Not surprising perhaps, but still chaotic.

    But people voted for it. That's what the left is missing in this whole reality show they are producing.

    People knew Trump was a loose cannon. They knew he was a womanizer. They knew he was vulgar and bombastic. They knew he doesn't speak in the King's English. No candidate is perfect, and people decided that they could accept these weaknesses of Trump's in exchange for him fulfilling his policy promises.

    Maybe rather than putting Trump's actions through the spin cycle and framing it as chaotic reality TV, perhaps the left would be better served by trying to evaluate why their policy promises were so unattractive.

    The left is not producing the reality show, they are only broadcasting it. Trump is the one doing all the hiring/firing, sending midnight tweets to insult celebrities, talking shit to the Boy Scouts, and so on.
