President Donald Trump went on a Twitter frenzy early Tuesday — directed at the New York Times.
He’s demanding an apology from the news giant — and not just a simple “sorry” will do.
“I wonder if the New York Times will apologize to me a second time, as they did after the 2016 Election,” Trump wrote. “But this one will have to be far bigger & better apology. On this one they will have to get down on their knees and beg for forgiveness-they are truly the Enemy of the People!”

The President is taking on The Times because the liberal newspaper has started accusing Trump of obstruction of justice.
As expected, responses to the report have clashed.
Never mind that more than three quarters of the American people say that the Mueller report didn’t change their opinions of the President.
Democrats have begun demanding the impeachment of Trump; it seems the mainstream media is happy to agree with them.
Specifically, Trump went after economist and Times opinion columnist Paul Krugman for saying that America is on the brink of another recession – even though the Dow exploded by triple digits early this afternoon.
Paul Krugman, of the Fake News New York Times, has lost all credibility, as has the Times itself, with his false and highly inaccurate writings on me. He is obsessed with hatred, just as others are obsessed with how stupid he is. He said Market would crash, Only Record Highs!

Of course, Krugman also predicted a “global recession” after Trump was elected in 2016.
Wrong then. Wrong now.
In liberal land, though, a downturn in the economy to hurt Trump is something that would be celebrated, it seems.
Never mind that it’s the poor that suffer most during a recession.
The media would rather see America destroyed than to admit that Trump is doing a good job.
“In the ‘old days’ if you were President and you had a good economy, you were basically immune from criticism,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “Remember, ‘It’s the economy stupid.’ Today I have, as President, perhaps the greatest economy in history…and to the Mainstream Media, it means NOTHING. But it will!”
