    So the NYT is confirming what many of us have been saying for weeks…neither candidate is deserving to be President and either would be an embarrassment to this country.

    If it helps, I like Eisenhower, Grant, and Lincoln.

    You don’t have to agree with its editorial positions to recognize the NYY as a great newspaper. You do have to be in the Trump cult and/or deliberately uninformed to disparage it, which reminds me of Twain’s great observation:

    “Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge.”

    I get the WSJ & NYT as a work perk. they are both really good papers. & my wife now gets the Economist sent to the house, so I have nobody to blame except myself if I'm ill informed.

    Please. Russia has been targeting civilians since the start. And they continue to target civilian targets including a children's hospital.

    Between these lies, the Nazi lies, the chemical weapons lies and more, how can you trust Russian propaganda? I can't.

    Is "projection" the psychological term for those who project onto others what they see in themselves? There's been no President in our history who has been a greater traitor to the American way of life than Trump.

    Yes. And Trump and his cultists are a textbook case of it. (Example: The four-times indicted, convicted felon Trump calls Biden "Crooked Joe.")

    Well, one candidate is a narcissistic sociopath and the other isn't, so there is that to ponder at the ballot box.

    Work perks tend to be digital. I got the NYT for a couple years through work.

    He said "sent to the house" so I was thinking he gets a real paper. I have WSJ, NYT and WaPo subscriptions myself, just no real papers.

    Yes, I’m part of a cult: Red Sox Nation. You mistakenly wrote NYY and I hate the Yankees. Nuff said.

    The NYT WAS a great paper. The Times has become the house organ of the Democratic Party. Its objectively is gone, as confirmed by the former editor who wrote about how the Times has fallen - and which there was a discussion here on TooHot.

    Finally, thank you for the ubiquitous personal shot from the Left. If your position was so sure, so unassailable and so righteous you wouldn’t feel the need to try and mock those with whom you disagree. A lot of folks left TooHot because of this type of behavior- I accept it as a compliment from folks who cannot argue their position but are left to denigrate others. Sad.
