    The New York Times has an access relationship with Trump that goes back decades, till 1980s at least. That's both a strength & a weakness.

        It's also why he has a love/hate relationship with the NYT. He desperately craves their approval, then goes into a spittle-flecked rage when he's denied it.

        How is it a strength if they only utilize that access to repeat his 280 character musings?

        Here's the thing: they are functioning under the delusion access to him is somehow newsworthy/interesting. It's not. It's bathing in his bullshit.

        It would be far more helpful to interview one level down from him, and those who are supposed to be keeping him in check in congress. Get *them* on record. If nothing else, it will at least be coherent.

        I like Maggie’s stuff, but her trump coverage frequently feels very access based with little consideration for anything else.

        Now that they've defended their interview as "letting Trump show himself," are they now going to provide an in-depth analysis of how it was all bullshit? I won't hold my breath. Another reason not to subscribe to the @nytimes

        Is it a kneeling down or bending over relationship? #FauxNews
