Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From Twitchy.com: “NYT issues lame 'correction' to Paul Krugman's claim that 'Democrats never said Donald Trump was illegitimate' [screenshots]”. Below is an excerpt from the article.
Recently, the New York Times’ Paul Krugman fired up his trusty gaslight and attempted to convince his readers that Democrats never said that Donald Trump was illegitimate. He certainly never said that!
The problem was that Paul Krugman, in fact, did say that. Along with a lot of other Democrats. A lot of Democrats still say that Donald Trump is illegitimate, to this day.
And we’re aware of this, which is why the New York Times found themselves in the familiar position of having to do damage control and issue a “correction”:
The @NYTimes runs a correction on that @paulkrugman column that said "And no, Democrats never said Donald Trump was illegitimate," though the correction is vague and goes easy on Krugman since he himself had written the opposite 4 years ago.https://t.co/JcRKchtr0w https://t.co/Ob3wwDaD6a pic.twitter.com/lP5XKk5jvx
Does he realize his old statements are on the internet? pic.twitter.com/pgwbo14nKg
