Mainstream media loves Trump, he's the most exciting thing to happen to viewership since reality TV.

Makes sense, basically his only real skill has been in TV.

And he was horrible at it. The crew worked hard to make him look somewhat competent and/or normal

if that were the reason you'd think they'd air this doc during election season before he might become irrelevant. to me it seems like they’re attempting to appear unbiased.

They're doing a pretty ass job if it.
