I am interested in the consequences of Trump media coverage and it's correlation to the well-being of the American People. I am curious about the relationship between "frequencies of outlandish/discriminatory comments made by Trump to the coverage he receives from media outlets and that coverage's potential to drive Trump's electability as measured by polling data, as we have seen lately. That being said, I state the following "glass half full" perspective that might soften the frustration associated with the daily media cycle: the higher Mr. Trump climbs, the less likely a candidate, holding even some of his discriminatory beliefs, ascends to the highest office in the land. It would seem, in my opinion and analysis, more coverage of Trump = less coverage of others = less opportunity to weaken others = higher likelihood for a candidate with more socially moderate beliefs (and a less discriminatory policy platform) to be elected. Simply, more media coverage for Trump = more votes for liberal policy initiatives/candidates. This is the game and Trump is a player, let's let him play and see what happens, we may actually like the winner.
