What % of NYT readers voted for Trump? It has to be minuscule.

The election was so close, there are dozens of but-for causes that could have tipped the scale, but the NYT not being sufficiently alarmist about Trump (which is what that CNN article you linked claims - not that the paper was a proponent of Trump, as you say) probably wasn’t one of them.

Trump uses his grace as a tool to shape others’ behavior. All that matters is the last thing you said about him. His vice president once called him “America’s Hitler.”

That chocolate’s going back on the shelf. She wasted her money. Be more straightforward, people!
