Who knew the NYT wasn't into subtle?

Butthurtz - obviously.

Nuance - not so much.

CommieGirl is on the J.O.B. Same thing happened to me - I thought it was "BLAH."

"Despite a flagging economy and a five-year decline in the popularity of golf, Trump is certain the investments aren't a risk."

This from a guy who couldn't make a casino turn a profit. Twice.

"This is even with the millions his company must invest in the links to get them up to Trump-level standards."

Load them up with debt, spend millions changing the name on everything to "Trump," and line up some "investors" to take all the risk and none of the profits.

I will withhold judgement on the NYT until I see what misery they inflict on this piss-poor excuse for a journalist. Demotion to third-string coverage of the gossip page would be nice. Dismissal, so she can go work for Murdoch (who is more likely to value her talent for balancy-ness, fairy-ness, and truthiness.)

<i>Kate Zernike did not seem to be doing herself any favors by ending it with a steaming dump of DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?</i>

The snarkyness of that comment cured my bad mood and resurrected my neighbor's dead pomeranian.

"...about the failure of the war on drugs."

The War on Drugs is, indeed, over.

Drugs won.
