Has anyone heard of this columnist Paul Krugman from the New York Times?

I think it's pretty disgusting and haven't heard a response from him wrt the current backlash. Trump mentioned it in one of his latest victory tours.

I think it's degrading to the city of New York, the Pentagon, America, the western world, you and I, etc.

What's equally disturbing to me is the inaction of the editor.

Anybody heard more on this?

Oh, there's a retort by him already,

This rag (just a "thought" in the "cloud" of my mind ... aka imo) that employs this guy is the one that brought us more fake news than probably the Onion, imo and itcomm (in the cloud of my mind) of course, did.

Look how they did on the election polls for example.

I smell desparation... tictoc tictoc...

The MSM is a joke and has gone overboard with their Alt-Left agenda.

Krugman is an economist with a lot of influence in liberal circles. Many people take what he says seriously. He is dangerous and is a pure academic - the worst kind of economist.

Their biggest mistake was not being complimentary towards Trump when he deserved it. Fox did better than CNN in this regard, they had voices on both sides of the fence, with CNN, they were all anti trump all the time, and viciously anti trump, not even in the middle, they could have been neutral at times, but took the attack dog route in almost all cases and that hurt their credibility, most people who weren't born last night saw right thru them.

Krugman lost all credibility a long time ago.

Krugman is just another in a long line of embarrassments to the Swedish Academy.

They awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to the terrorist and murderer Yassir Arafat.

They awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama just for being black (after which Obama started a pointless war in Libya without consulting Congress and droned numerous wedding parties.)

And they awarded the Nobel Prize to Paul Krugman.

Take Martha Raddatz for example. The woman is so blatantly anti-Trump she almost cried on live TV when it was apparent Trump was going to win election night.

How can you trust her to provide anything close to neutral reporting when it comes to Trump. Like a lot of the MSM she completely hates the man.

She's the epitome of an overly emotional snowflake, her career is in the toilet now, nobody will care what she says anymore, she ruined it by siding with the devil.
