The NYT is so trying to help out Trump in the news cycle

Why else would they be pressing the bullet investigation of all things?

People, he lived. End of story. And Kamala is on the campaign trail, and winning!

Trump is a LOSER. And I am about to cancel my NYT subscription.

4. Now that they helped derail Biden, where are their articles about Trump's age and mental decline?

I won’t hold my breath. They started the week with complaints about Harris’s coronation and saying that a mini primary was necessary for her to have legitimacy. I think they’ve backed off that a bit, but David Brooks wrote an infuriating piece grading Kamala on several points like leadership and management skills, vision, composure, and overall reputation—giving her Cs. He gave her a B on relatability and analytical abilities and an A on toughness. Of course, he didn’t bother doing an analysis of Trump and grading him on the same skills. Brooks was roundly chastised in the comments, though a few were still irate that other Democrats were not allowed to challenge Harris. That’s how the media treats Republicans and Democrats so differently.
