I find this a strange argument because although I have no love for The New York Times, they are correct to hear when Trump and the entire far right describe The Times and the media for which it's a synecdoche as their enemy and which they want to destroy
I don’t recall the NYT calling for Trump to step down after being convicted of 34 counts of fraud and being called by a judge at his civil trial a rapist in the common person sense
The editorial is itself premised on Trump as existential threat! "why haven't you called for the existential threat to abolish itself?" is such a strange retort
