NYT Edit: "What America has seen so far is an inept White House led by a celebrity apprentice."
The New York Times on Saturday published a blistering assessment of President Trump's performance, blasting him for a lack of meaningful accomplishments.
"It’s with a whiff of desperation that President Trump insists these days that he’s the chief executive Washington needs, the decisive dealmaker who, as he said during the campaign, 'alone can fix it,' " The Times wrote in its editorial.
"What America has seen so far is an inept White House led by a celebrity apprentice."
The newspaper's editorial board argued that Trump's executive orders are not achievements and that the president has not yet been able to spearhead any meaningful reform effort.
"When Mr. Trump’s assistants can keep the edge of panic out of their voices, they insist that Mr. Trump has gotten more done in the early going than most presidents. And Mr. Trump is so adept at creating smoke that Americans might be forgiven for thinking that’s true," the Times wrote.
"The president confuses executive orders with achievements."
The editorial board claimed that Trump's adviser Steve Bannon writes his script while Reince Priebus, the White House chief of staff, "crashes meetings to which he has not been invited."
