Viewers stop changing the channel when Trump is on screen. That's all there is to that.
When the media spins something up into a narrative, they're just grabbing those narrative devices out of a hat full of tricks that have worked in the past to engage viewers.
I've got 15 years working in media. There's no conspiracy, it's just run of the mill shameless opportunism. 'Look at that, they're eating this shit up, feed them more!'
