And, like clockwork, a NYT writer’s “both sides” bullshit—even Maggie wasn’t buying it.

No, I’m not saying it’s wrong. I’m saying merely that it’s time to stop pretending the war on the press started with Trump. He escalated it, but it was supported in one way or another by more establishment politicians than not, on both sides of the aisle.

Supporting local journalism is important, what happened today is sickening. This alleged gunman appears to have had a longstanding grudge against the paper and little else is known so far. But Trump is the only president in memory to call the press “the enemy of the people.” https://t.co/QmGBikZh0L
