"A deranged autocrat," Trump attacks the prestigious New York Times

President Donald Trump has again attacked The New York Times newspaper, after the newspaper's chief White House correspondent questioned his health and mental stability.

"Have they no shame? Have they no sense of kindness?" the president wrote on Truth Social, after veteran NYT reporter Peter Baker cast doubt on his "erratic behavior and extreme comments."

Trump did not respond directly to Baker's article, but attacked the newspaper's coverage of the war in Iran. Trump has previously described the New York Times as "reckless, perhaps even treasonous" for publishing an article questioning his health.

"For those people who still read the failed newspaper The New York Times and despite the fact that Iran has been completely DESTROYED, militarily and otherwise, would think that Iran is actually winning or, at least, doing quite well," Trump wrote.

"But this is not true and The New York Times knows it is FAKE NEWS! When will this corrupt media apologize for the LIES and terrible actions against me, my supporters and our country itself!"

It was not clear exactly what news item in particular the president may have been reacting to in his post.

Late last year, the president reacted sharply after another New York Times report found that his activity level during his first 10 months in office was significantly lower than during his first term.

The report at the time analyzed Trump's official agendas and compared events during his first and second terms and found that his official engagements fell by almost 40%. The president's public appearances are a matter of public record, however.

Trump accused the NYT of fabricating its analysis to damage him politically.
He also accused veteran White House reporter Katie Rogers of being “set to write only bad things” about him and called her “a third-rate journalist who is ugly, inside and out.”

Baker's news was significant because the media has previously been accused of "ignoring" Trump's long history of erratic behavior, bizarre outbursts, furious complaints and vindictive insults.

The article was a summary of recent concerns not only from Democrats and Trump's dedicated enemies, but also from "retired generals, diplomats and foreign officials," as well as from Republicans and "former allies of the president."

Former Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, once one of Trump's most ardent supporters, described his threat to destroy Iran as "madness," while right-wing influencer Candace Owens called him "a genocidal lunatic."

Trump's former White House lawyer, Ty Cobb, said he was "clearly insane." Former CIA director John Brennan said the 25th Amendment to the Constitution was designed with people like Trump in mind. And at least 87 Democratic members of Congress have called on his cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, calling the president "insane" and "unstable."

Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, urged the White House physician to immediately conduct a comprehensive cognitive evaluation, describing Trump as "increasingly unstable, erratic, profane, deranged and threatening."

Journalist Baker wrote: “A series of disjointed, hard-to-follow, and sometimes profane statements… have left many with the impression of a deranged, power-mad autocrat.”

Many online commentators found that language significant. “A few months before the president’s 80th birthday, this newspaper is openly asking if he is crazy,” wrote Washington Post global economics correspondent David J. Lynch in X.

Others mocked the article for admitting what they thought had long been obvious.
