The Naked Truth About Trump

By Maureen Dowd

WASHINGTON — Before I get to America’s Mayor and America’s Nightmare, I would like to say this:

Michelle Wolf was right when she turned a gimlet eye on the media.

“You guys are obsessed with Trump,” the comedian said at the White House Correspondents Dinner. “Did you used to date him? Because you pretend like you hate him, but I think you love him.

“I think what no one in this room wants to admit is that Trump has helped all of you. He couldn’t sell steaks or vodka or water or college or ties or Eric, but he has helped you. He’s helped you sell your papers and your books and your TV. You helped create this monster, and now you’re profiting off of him. If you’re going to profit off of Trump, you should at least give him some money, because he doesn’t have any.”

You know Donald Trump also believes that he is the best thing to ever happen to the media — and that he should be getting a cut of the action. There’s nothing he hates more than feeling that someone has profited off him, while he gets nothing. Remember when he proposed a $5 million ransom to show up at the CNN debate?

When I see NYTimes in the url I go no further.

That’s an unfortunate headline.

Same observations I have made about his behavior and the outcome Dowd suggests could happen, maybe not in that way but still a breakdown.

The NYT and Truth are mutually exclusive and should never be used in the same sentence, for one has no part with the other.
