On a Friday in late September, Donald J. Trump took time off the campaign trail for a closed-door meeting at Mar-a-Lago with officials representing the vaping industry.
The vaping emissaries talked about loosening regulations and told the former president he had “saved” the industry in the past. The group — including Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, and another 2016 campaign aide, Michael Rubino — showed him mock-ups of mailers they were sending out through Election Day. Mr. Trump asked for input on what he could say on social media about a complicated regulatory issue.
Within hours, Mr. Trump had posted about his allegiances to the embattled e-cigarette sector. “I saved Flavored Vaping in 2019,” Mr. Trump wrote on social media. “I’ll save Vaping again!”
The head of the Vapor Technology Association, Tony Abboud, who was also in the meeting, quickly declared he was “pleased” that Mr. Trump was “continuing to fight for vapers.” The vaping industry has not been a significant contributor in the presidential race, but the Vapor Technology Association has been quietly sending versions of those mailers to voters in battleground states warning that Democrats want “to steal vapes from freedom-loving Americans.”
As Mr. Trump seeks a return to the White House, he has come a long way from his 2016 campaign pitch that he was so rich he was incorruptible. Back then, he mocked the G.O.P.’s donor-lobbyist class and boasted in his announcement speech, “I don’t need anybody’s money.” Today, Mr. Trump is looking everywhere for cash: asking small donors online, pressing fellow billionaires over private meals in Trump Tower and lobbying for donations from industries regulated by the government.

Now do democrats’ with endless promises to everyone (if you like your plan you can keep your plan), EV car makers, windmill makers, Chinese solar panel companies, on and on and on.
Scandalous — a presidential candidate who says openly what he will do if elected!
Short version. Trump promises freedom.
Fascists and Hitler lovers do that
Remember the multiple-author rule: Three or more authors means the article should not be read. Anytime there are three or more authors, the stupidity compounds at an exponential rate.
harris does the same thing.
It’s part of campaigning.
The NTY really needs to get a grip. I’m worried about their mental health. Maybe they should install a suicide net on the building.
The Fifth Columnist, E. Pluribus, never tires of producing NYTimes articles on FR.
When caught out he reverts to the Washington Post.
These attacks dogs for the NYT especially are always cut from same exact cloth
It’s like they recruit like kind
Haberman
Cookie cutter leftist Jewish urban Kantian dating back generations to Germany
Goldmacher and Swan pretty much same thing though Swan is an Aussie version and an egregious offender an Aussie muckraker
It’s not coincidence the Shulzbergers hire these folks to do precisely what they do
However they no longer completely dominate the real estate
All other racial and ethnic minorities are covered
You’ll have the angry oriental gal and the angry black
And a token non Jewish white like Michael Douglas ex paramour who’s name escaped me
It’s an incestuous bunch but even stupid people can’t help but notice a pattern lol
To understand “why” simply understand the SIURCE of information. Even though we love them, would you resend a “fact”from the Babylon Bee?
Maybe the staff at the NYT should vape something stronger.
Obama said he was going to “Transform America”
After 2 years, America saw what that meant.
After 2024, the Obama Empire will be gone if Trump cleans house at the EPA, State Dept and Dept of Education.
I’m not expecting too much from Trump but I think the important thing is to have the Border Wall built then replace Alito and Thomas in the SCOTUS by 2026, they will be 76 and 78 by then. I’m sure they’ll be ready to retire.
Ya know, I certainly don’t doubt that you are a conservative and you are on our side. :)
But what do DOZENS of these negative articles a day do for us?
Just curious, they might do a lot :)
Not sure why so many though.
It’s like you post every article the Times prints :)
have a good one!
WOULD BE DELICIOUS IF MUSK BOUGHT THE NYT & CLOSED IT DOWN & SOLD THE BUILDING FOR MORE THAN THE PRICE OF HIS PURCHASE.
