'The Times is DEAD': Donald Trump calls for the resignation of everyone involved in the NYT's 'SMEAR story' on Brett Kavanaugh

This was pretty much inevitable, wasn’t it?

I call for the Resignation of everybody at The New York Times involved in the Kavanaugh SMEAR story, and while you’re at it, the Russian Witch Hunt Hoax, which is just as phony! They’ve taken the Old Grey Lady and broken her down, destroyed her virtue and ruined her reputation…

…She can never recover, and will never return to Greatness, under current Management. The Times is DEAD, long live The New York Times!

Donald Trump’s not about to pass up an opportunity to shame the New York Times for screwing the pooch once again. He’s not really in a position to dictate what the New York Times does, but honestly, after this Brett Kavanaugh clownshow, it’s hard to fault him too much for going off.

Interesting to see if this prompts a response from the Times, which has been silent on this story in terms of the hows and whys around how the story passed the smell test. https://t.co/Pjf2MYggMf
