While some Trump news stories demand the public's attention, others -- like flying "chubby kids" in helicopters or sparking silly Twitter feuds with B-listers -- could probably afford take the back-burner. Impossible, says one news anchor whose livelihood practically depends on this garbage, driving his wife into a life of cosplaying as Trump just to win back his affection.
