Trump is deranged. He systematically trashes NYT as fake news (with no evidence disproving of their reporting, ever) when he doesnt like the coverage - only because he whines like a 3 year old and his snowflake personality can't take the negativity.

So how does he trust them for an interview? Why does he crave their attention? Is it because he's a needy, spoiled attention wh..e?

Not to mention all lies he mentioned during the interview - wow, truly demented person:

Lie no. 1:

Said Manafort worked for him for 3 1/2 months and never knew him before
Fact: it was 6 months and he knew him for much longer before.

Lie no.2:
Said he stayed uninvolved with Russia probe.
Fact: he fired Comey, threatened Yates and McCabe, tampered with Flynn and Don Jr

Lie no.3:
Said: my base is stronger than ever before.
Fact: all polls show its shrinking, even fox news ones.

Lie no.4:
Said: it's proven there has been no collusion
Fact: None of the committees, or FBI, or Mueller, issued any reports. All investigations are ongoing.

Lie no.5:
Dems made up Russia story as an excuse for losing election
Fact: FBI started investigation in the summer of 2016 (and the Steele dossier was not available then yet so it wasnt basis for it!!)

What a world we live in. That 30% of the country is fine with daily dosage of all those lies and delusions- just WOW

What's funny too is Trump's criticism of the media is good for business, they are seeing record ratings and subscriptions. He is actually doing them a service, while doing himself a disservice by making enemies out of them.

It's a lose-lose situation, lol.

If Trump thinks NYT is fake news, why does he keep giving them interviews?

Because an addict doesn't care where he gets his drug from.

Regarding Trump's poll numbers shrinking, his 2016 campaign was so successful because his rallies were the most entertaining rallies anyone has ever seen.
So his poll numbers are only shrinking because he's hardly done any rallies in 2017, but that will change in 2018 and obviously 2020.
Meanwhile hardly anyone will attend the Democrat nominee's rallies, because it'll be another boring politician.....

As I've said, he doesn't know what he is doing, he habitually says one thing, then the other, as if he has a split personality - besides making things up, faking it, lying. He is nonfunctional.

Talk about a biased thread from a biased but uninformed OP.

It’s very simple. Eventhough NYT is very much anti-Trump, and Trump is well aware of that, he is also aware that they still have many readers, including some supporters of his, and it would at least for one article in which he is interviewed, be in his own words instead of a liberal news author giving their biased version of things.

Yet he is far better a president than any Democrat, including Obama, who seek to destroy the country piece by piece.

Lol! He has won on every single front. You Dems are so used to being losers you don't even know what winning looks like any more:

1) Illegal immigration down 64%
2) Isis chased out of Mosul and virtually destroyed
3) Stock Market soaring, inflation down, unemployment down, manufacturing soaring (best since 83)
4) The "2 for 1" rule which had eliminated regulation via executive order
5) Hiring freeze on government employees
6) Gorsuch and dozens of other justices appointed
7) Keystone Pipeline approved
8) Finding ways to reduce number of refuges (Refugee Admissions Plummet to 1,242 in First Month of FY 2018 - Breitbart)
9) Media finally being held accountable for lies
10) TPP dead
11) Kim Jong Un backs down from Guam
12) Spending by NATO allies up 10 billion
13) Obamacare altered and gutted by executive orders that allow for greater cross-state competition, and that gut illegal subsidies not approved by congress. Individual mandate killed.
14) Return to Constitutionality with reversal of illegal executive orders on Dreamers and Obamacare.
15) 250 billon trade deal with China
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-trump-asia-china-deals/trumps-250-billion-china-miracle-adds-gloss-to-off-kilter-trade-idUSKBN1D90L2

The reason Trump keeps going interviews to the NYTs is simple: He wants their approval.

Trump's blusters and lies about "fake news" regarding both NYTs, and CNN for that matter, is just for consumption for his blind and oblivious supporters. Trump just doesn't want their approval he wants their respect.

Trump will continue to have an inferiority complex until he receives what he think he deserves from the NYTs.

Remember Trump is from New York, and no matter what his unlearned supporters may think, the NYTs is considered the apex of respectability, culture and reporting, Trump knows this.

He also knows Fox News is the place to appear to throw chum to his supporters.
