NY Times Goes 100% Negative on Front Page: 'Initiating War Is Legacy Risk For President'

The New York Times sulkily refuses to give President Trump any credit for eliminating the power structure of an authoritarian, murderous Islamic regime working hard to build a nuclear weapon, one that's bedeviled America, Israel, and the Western world by supporting terror attacks for over 40 years.

The latest example of the paper's petulance ran on Wednesday's front page, a "news analysis" by Tyler Pager: "Initiating War Is Legacy Risk For President."

Pager got off to a dismal start, with a dense parade of Iran negatives.

Six American service members were killed, and U.S. military jets were shot out of the sky. Investors are bracing for market turmoil, fearing prolonged disruption to oil supplies. President Trump says the military campaign against Iran could extend for weeks, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Monday that "the hardest hits are yet to come from the U.S. military."

With his decision Friday to authorize war against Iran, Mr. Trump is taking the biggest gamble of his presidency, risking the lives of American troops, more deaths and instability in the world's most volatile region, and his own political standing.
