Trump is a master of misdirection and manipulation. He casually drops the idea of revoking the licences of networks that air content critical of his administration, and the media is still too busy talking about his IQ tests to take notice. By the time the media has caught up Trump will have some new controversy cooked up waiting to go.
He's constantly in the news because he knows that controversy sells. He's gamed the system and he knows it--politics in the US is never going to be the same. All future presidential candidates are going to have to stoop to his level if they want a chance at winning.
