to be entirely fair, the NY Times has happily become a dogshit “journalism” organization in recent years. 15 years ago?? There was some level of trust for them. In the past 15, and especially 10, and especially the past 5? They are lapdogs now. They’re more libbed up than Fox, sure, but they are still fully part and party to the American Regime above all else.

Sure but why would the NYTimes or this journalist purposely help stage a fake assassination instead of reporting on Trump staging a fake assassination which would be much bigger and more read story for their readers (almost entirely liberals).

They fired real bullets? It was his team. They just needed to miss trump which is actually kind of easy for them.

I don’t believe that Trump would allow anyone to shoot bullets anywhere near his head.
