Which is why none of them point out the "emperor" (read: career criminal and douchebag) is "nude" (read: should be nowhere 𝘯𝘦𝘢𝘳 an election, let alone any government office), because then they have to (probably pretty easily) drum him the fuck out of politics and the junkies wouldn't get their hits.

They in fact do not, and their paychecks rely on it staying that way

The press remembers the ratings, the views, and the clicks during the first Trump term.

it cannot be only this because ratings would go through the roof if they truly pursued this one. I suspect sleepwalking and/or corruption.

oh, and probably fear, but they're idiots if they think half assing their way to actually letting him in power will save their hides.

The press is for-profit. Journalism is rapidly dying and it's easy to see why, it's not worth the individual effort if it all falls on deaf ears. It feels like a fruitless battle to the ones that care and an easy cash grab for opportunists - the disposition that capitalism rewards.
