let me get this straight, the NYT editorial board is *not* calling on the convicted felon to step down from the race? Just so I'm sure
Avatar
yeah yeah I know what the board wrote in the piece about the convicted felon, but did they also publish an entire piece calling for the convicted felon to step down? Wait, what?

Calling for Biden to drop out, but not Trump, sure sounds like the kind of thing a fundamentally Trumpist newspaper would do. As usual, the Times is confusing only if you buy their branding as centrist or left-leaning.

The other guy did something waaaaaaay worse. He refused to sit for a bad faith interview with a paper in the tank for the fash.

Seriously, when are liberals going to realize that the NYT is a reactionary rag meant to soothe the consciences of the affluent and well-connected?

Calling him a "convicted felon" is unfair. He's also an acknowledged rapist, an habitual liar, and a blatant thief of national secrets.

“A blatant tief of national secrets” is called a traitor; & as Commander in Chief, he should be court-martialled! The Rosenbergs were hanged for an alleged incident of giving nuclear secrets to Russia, & it wasn’t even proven! He deserves no less!

To be fair, this is the same shitgibbon rag that platforms/platformed David Brooks, Bari Weiss, Brett Stephens, Maureen Dowd, Peggy Noonan, and a whole host of other mediocre, self absorbed douchy white HOA board members of white upper middle class neoliberal & neoconservative mediocracy

Huh... Maybe they're ALL full of shit.

Nah, see, that would be the right thing to do. They obviously can't do that; it would demonstrate moral fiber and a spine!

And that's all you need to know about that.

Or for Biden to be dragged to a Genocide Tribunal, like the Nazis who came before.

No, the NYT editorial board is doing something that might actually affect something instead.
Avatar
What bullshit. It’s a statement of principle, not a mandate. If Biden deserves a call out to step down, Trump deserves one times fifty. Their position is beyond absurd.
Avatar
And do you imagine the NYT calling for Trump to step down to actually increase chances of him stepping out of the race?
Avatar
Doesn’t fucking matter. If Biden’s alleged unfitness demands they call for him to step down, then the same should apply to Trump.

For each & every lie uttered, & crime committed! Justice demands it!

Is James Comey on their editorial board? Asking for several friends...

To be fair, I think they know that would be a fool's errand.

Why are we being willfully dumb here? The times have absolutely zero sway over Trump's decisions.
Avatar
Only the Philadelphia Inquirer has had the integrity to tell Trump to step aside. The rest of the MSM has been in the bag for Trump since 2016.
Avatar
I get the frustration with the middle of the road liberal rags. And the NYT's unerring ability to deliver fascism because that is what liberalism does. But what would be the point of them calling on Trump to stand down? They're (allegedly) a pro-Dem rag and that is their constituency.

Fuck the NYT what a disgrace

Journalistic credibility is so far back in the NYT's editorial board's rear-view mirror that it has disappeared.
