The material is so weird that it practically writes itself, is the consensus.

Trump will still be in the news every day: the rape case, the fraud case, his lawsuits against the 12 women accusing him of sexual assault, reports unsnarling his connections to other countries (the Trump name appears 3540 times in the Panama Papers, for instance) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/gobankingrates/panama-papers-leak-donald_b_9897812.html

There are just so many ways Trump will be featured in the news, day after day, week after week, that being in the White House would limit his possibilities. I predict right now, that if Trump doesn't win the White House, he will still be in the news more than HRC.
