He doesn't deserve my attention. Not once in his miserable life has he ever said anything worth listening to.

I get that he's a bigot, a narcissist, an authoritarian, a fascist, a gaping asshole. I don't need daily reminders of that fact.

Authoritarians get their power from people who stand on the sidelines. Maybe you aren't standing on the sidelines, but the constant deluge of worse and worse news is part of the strategy to burn you out and stay home when the election/revolution (depending on how things are going) starts.

That's quite a leap. There's a difference between checking out and understanding that Trump has nothing interesting to say.
