And given the books that have been written, and now this, its quite clear that Trump is truly not doing well. The only delusion going on here is the continued denial of what by now seems very clear. President Trump is a horrible president.
Lol, you're not getting him out. Delusional hysteria. Enjoy Judge Kavanaugh

if you'd read the intro you'd know that the NYT is aware of the identity of the writer.

30 years of anonymity.

Nixon wanted to put an assortment of NYT and WAPO sources in jail.

I could get behind it being her for sure.

It’s certainly not SHS, KAC, or anyone whose current job is to defend him against this sort of thing. (They wouldn’t make their jobs that much more challenging.)

LAWL.


The mexican & soros owned leftist blog called the NY Times makes up a story, says it came from anonymous, and we already have 138 posts here from the daily CD "I Hate Trump" circle jerk.



Russians haven't mind controlled the easily influenced. But it's clear who has.

That's a very sharp observation. It's not a widely used term. If we consider accounting and finance as an economics background as well as a generally eloquent writing style, I'll bet lunch it was one Nimrata "Nikki" Haley who authored it.

If "lodestar" is the big clue, and given that Pence has used the word routinely in speeches, I would propose the key suspect is Pence's *speechwriter.*

I am honestly curious how often the NYT, CNN and MSNBC site "Anonymous Sources" for stories compared to FOX News.

Lol

It seems that on CNN they say "An anonymous source has told CNN (you fill in the blank)" at least twice a day.

Anonymous source stories = hit jobs = fake news
