New York Times shrugs off Trump campaign lawbreaking, crucified Al Gore for less
https://pressrun.media/p/new-york-times-shrugs-at-trump-campaign
remember when Al Gore made phone calls from the White House and NYT called for a major investigation and the the Repubs spent 7 million and 3 months on investigations? Trump has so degraded our values and outrage.
Thank to Mike Malloy for bringing this to my attention.

(5,073 posts)I'll never forget the NYT's article about the Clinton Foundation and what it "might" be doing, despite its high Charity Navigator rating, which led me to donate monthly to the Clinton Foundation until the pandemic hit. I already knew that the only thing the Trump charity did was pay Donnie's Scout fees and purchase a $40K portrait of Trump, but they could have broken the story early about how corrupt it actually was--the next year it was dissolved and the Trumps forbidden to be part of a foundation again. They chose not to.
