“Mr. Trump needed to paint Ms. Harris as responsible for the pain that voters have described feeling" is a sentence that has no place in a news story. None. The Times has invented this "Analysis" category so they can allow their reporters to indulge in pure editorializing, and always -- always -- for the benefit of Trump and the Republicans.

It has not escaped my -- nor, I hope, anyone's -- attention that Haberman did not, and never does, respond to any of the ACTUAL criticisms of her and the Times from the left. Just like their counterparts at Fox News, she responds to a self-serving, self-pitying caricature of the criticism from the left that she and they invent. It's extremely important that they not let anyone actually hear what's being said about them. But Trump can call her Maggot and she grants him the unearned assumption that he deserves to be heard out.
