James GleickI’ve read the New York Times all my life, and I worked in the newsroom for ten years, and I’ve never seen the news department along with the editorial department commit to a nakedly partisan political crusade, as they are now. Evidently they are more outraged by Biden’s determination to continue running for re-election than they have ever been by Donald Trump.
Nicole ParsonsThe readership of the New York Times is the moneyed.
The moneyed do not necessarily want to live under a Trump fascist dictatorship, but they do want a gridlocked, hobbled, & backsliding democracy that won't be able to handle crises like climate change.
They want a democracy that won't get any bright ideas like social mobility, women voting, or immigrants succeeding.
They want profitable disasters that balloon the national debt & thwart taxation on themselves.
Like a world war

The moneyed know that a Trump presidency ensures a profitable war that distracts from domestic issues.

Ditto Trump's penchant for stock market manipulation.
Trump's bargains with his wealthy supporters is always based on making someone richer, just not the American people.
