Donald Trump schlepped across town on Tuesday to meet with the publisher of The New York Times and some editors, columnists and reporters at the paper.
As The Times reported, Trump actually seemed to soften some of his positions:
He seemed to indicate that he wouldnt seek to prosecute Hillary Clinton. But he should never have said that he was going to do that in the first place.
He seemed to indicate that he wouldnt encourage the military to use torture. But he should never have said that he would do that in the first place.
He said that he would have an open mind on climate change. But that should always have been his position.
You dont get a pat on the back for ratcheting down from rabid after exploiting that very radicalism to your advantage. Unrepentant opportunism belies a staggering lack of character and caring that cant simply be vanquished from memory. You did real harm to this country and many of its citizens, and I will never never forget that.

(70,762 posts)It's been miserable having his face and voice on t.v. every day of the miserable campaign and the prospect of four years of *CRAP*. And I did the whole Thanksgiving scenario without having to battle anybody but HIM was a pall hanging over everything.
Lest we forget...
