Trump Asserts that Media Have to Let Him in Another Term or Fail

“Another reason that I’m going to win another four years is because newspapers, television, all forms of media will tank if I’m not there because without me, their ratings are going down the tubes. Without me, The New York Times will indeed be not the failing New York Times, but the failed New York Times. So they basically have to let me win.”

— President Trump, in an interview with the New York Times.
