I love how he called them a disgrace. Rails against them incessantly.... yet quotes (misquotes in reality) them as TRUTH on his claim that they are the source of his claims that Obama wiretapped him. Can't have it both ways, Donald.

I guess using tweets from random stupid ppl would be the appropriate way to back up president twitter.

He motivated me to subscribe to NYT for home delivery for the next two years. I forgot how much I enjoyed reading a paper.

I'm pretty sure that was not the point. I'm pretty sure the point was that it was being used to describe Donald Trump, which is silly, at best.

Of course the irony is that he lies about people all the time, but that's a different matter altogether.

Well he is very familiar with the libel laws. So, what goes around, comes around

Probably. But the last twqo election cycles we had a President that was worried about a black professor who was questioned for breaking into a house. While it was true that the house belonged to the professor, Obama said the police were overstepping. Personally? I would hope if the police saw a person (Even if it was me) breaking into my house, they would stop them (me0 and ask a few questions.

And that was only one of several cases in which he stuck his federal nose into local matters. You know....worrying about the wrong stuff.

Yes you can. Do you understand libel law at all?

In order for something to be libel 2 things have to be proven

A) that what was said was untrue and the person saying it knew it was untrue

and

B) It caused the person it was said about actual damages.

Good luck proving those two things in 99% of the fake stories we see and hear.

Well, there were the web sites etc.....however, the comment was made that nobody said Trump was literally anything. I proved that statement wrong, did I not?

You're wasting your money. Again, it's pretty sad what's happened to them from an editorial standpoint. I miss reading the old version of that paper. Grabbing a copy of the Sunday edition (which was available on Saturday evenings) was entertaining.
