The Times can run full court pressure campaigns over political scandals when they want to, as we saw with both Claudine Gay and EMAILS! the thing is they just don't want to with Trump
The Times could run the exact same “age and mental capacity” stories they’ve run about Biden essentially word for word, and still have dozens of Trump-specific takes on the subject uncovered.
This was a great point about the game the NYT plays:
Remember when they kept running stories that were like "still no backlash for embattled MIT president, calls to resign stubbornly refuse to appear... so far"
I wonder if the owners of the New York Times might have been included in information contained in Jeffrey Epstein's safe? The one that was opened by the FBI, full of hard drives and CD discs, the contents of which they weren't able to get a warrant to obtain for several days.
The FBI agent said a search of Epstein's mansion found numerous hard drives and CDs filled with photographs.
It doesn't pay to beat on Trump.
Is it possible they fear retribution? Trump is not exactly restrained in his criticism of them now - what would he do if they were actually going after him?
At least the Times has been restrained and nuanced discussing Biden's age.
The New York Times really likes Donald Trump and wants him to win.
there's no storyline to be had in multiple high-profile trials & rulings including a half-billion debt to the state of New York, it's just not relevant to the Times or its readers' interests
