Reposted by @peterleoia.bsky.socialLarry Glickman @larryglickman.bsky.social · 10/01/2026It's remarkable that Trump's claim that there are no constraints on his power other than his "own morality"--that he thinks he can govern as a dictator--proved to be a 1-day story, with no follow-up coverage in the New York Times, to whom he said this, or, as far as I can tell, any other newspaper. 34898287
