The New York Times, attacked by President Donald Trump for reporting about his physical condition, said on Wednesday that it wouldn’t be deterred by “false and inflammatory language” that distorts the role of a free press.

The president had posted on his Truth Social platform that he believed it was “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for the Times and other media outlets to do “FAKE” reports on his health.

“They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it,” Trump wrote.

The 79-year-old president wouldn’t specify, but the newspaper has posted a handful of reports about his health in recent weeks. In a Nov. 25 story headlined “Shorter Days, Signs of Fatigue: Trump Faces Realities of Aging in Office,” reporters examined Trump’s public and travel schedules to conclude Americans were seeing less of him than they were used to.

1. Prove the Times false, piggy. Let us see your medical records, including those from the alleged assassination attempt.

I personally have always thought you were hyped on a drug cocktail before every public appearance.

Prove me wrong, piggy. Or shut up.

7. The medical records will be produced right after the Income Tax records! /s /nt

2. Maybe a Wisp of Life? What Would it Take to Goose the Gray One into Actually Doing Serious Journalism

And forgoing the both-siderism and cowardly deference to repub bullying? Of course the rag has decades of that (maybe like journalism PT?), stretching back to when that sad little shrub's baby mobsters Dick and Donald scared the journalism right out of that paper - and even well before that, when that cheap hick Starr decided that Bill's pathetic shenanigans needed a parade of their own. And then went on at Baylor to fully confirm just how little character he had. Of course almost all of that we learned elsewhere rather than at the "Times"!

3. The NYT, standing up to trump?

I'll believe it when I see it. And I won't hold my fucking breath, while I wait. Once a great paper, the NYT is now Exhibit "A" for the chickenshit, trump-empowering national media, as far as I'm concerned.

6. Now that he's continually trending down

in the polls, the Gray Lady finds it safe to be less favorable to the Girth Vader.
