Why should they start now? There was one reporter in the entire media that bothered to do their job and seriously investigate Trump's shenanigans. That would be
WaPo's Farenthold. What did it do? People ignored it because Trump was so good at burying the lead with outrageous tweets. He had the mass media eating out his hand with each and every stupid tweet he made. If the media had ignored the tweets and instead gone after his connection to foreign interests, his connection to Russia, the Trump Foundation that was put under investigation by the State of New York, Trump's taxes, Trump's connections to organized crime, Trump's connections to Wall Street - especially Goldman Sachs, and so on and so on. Total failure by the media because they allowed the campaign to be turned into the cult of personality.

Outside of this, lets see how Trump governs. This might the new way of governing in 2016. I so far like some things and hate other things

I'm really curious about this. What things has he done that could be construed as being good?
Seriously, if he does some of the things he's talking about we're headed back to the days of no social safety net and the economy ruled by the robber barons. How would you feel if Trudeau privatized CPP and the Canadian healthcare system? I don't think those things should be exposed to the volatility of the markets. How would you feel if all collective bargaining rights were taken away, along with the many benefits promised in past deals? Think about those things in that perspective.
