The national obsession with "The Trump Show."
1 big thing: Trump’s historic gift to media
<snip>
Cable news is setting records, books are hot again, newspapers are racking up the digital subscriptions and an op-ed (!) is a hot gossip topic — all because of the national obsession with "The Trump Show."
Trump and the media, for all his attacks and despite the cultural chasm between them, just can't quit each other.
Throughout the 20 months of the Trump presidency, news executives have been expecting Trump fatigue to eventually set in. Not only is there not a single sign of it, we're experiencing the opposite — a rising Trump fever.
Viewers and readers, lovers and haters, are addicted to Trump.

Not entirely accurate, but I'd say more accurate than not. I think most American's just want to be made whole again after having another election stolen away from our democracy and are looking for signs that this illegitimate regime is crumbling to and end.
