Dear Lord. Imagine being the poor hapless schmuck who had to write this headline for @nytimes.com, knowing that you're surrounded by actual New Yorkers who in fact don't have total fucking amnesia.

I feel like 80% of trump's whole deal is new Yorkers have always hated him?! He was never accepted by the social circles he felt he should have been here AND the man on the street has loathed him for decades

I went to uni with New Yorkers (late-1980s/early-1990s) who shared Spy magazine with me. I'm so grateful for knowing what that dude was before The Apprentice rehabbed his image.

Cmon, when Superman was rebooted in 1986 Lex Luthor was "reimagined" in Trump's image, but with actual acumen. Anyone who's ever paid a lick of attention knows TFG is a joke who has more in common with diarrhea than people.

This thread has actually made me homesick for New York, where I have not lived since the late 1980s, but have spent the last decade telling my fellow Europeans that New York has always hated Trump (and they never believe me).

We hate him. We have ALWAYS hated him. We made Spy Magazine successful based on hating him. We knew he was scum long before anybody else had to have that knowledge forced upon them.

In 2016 Trump lost the *Republican* primary in New York County (Manhattan). John Kasich beat him in the place where republicans know him best. He never was the “Master of NY”. 🤦‍♀️

I'm sorry, I learned Trump was a terrible person and also a joke from Law & Order, where "everyone hates Trump" was used to remind the viewer that this was New York, just like massive rats on the subway and randomly finding a dead body in Central Park.

Spy magazine used to constantly refer to Trump as "the short-fingered vulgarian." Spy's editor S. Carter Hayden, who coined the term, went on to edit Vanity Fair magazine. Dumping on Trump was a cottage industry in NYC until Vladimir Putin told Mark Burnett to build a show around him.

*Maybe* there was a time in the 70s or early 80s where New Yorkers or anyone in the tri-state area respected him. But definitely by 1989 he was a joke and loathed.

Even in the Darkest Wilds of Calgary, Alberta, I know that Donald Trump and the people of New York City have a hate-hate relationship with each other. Hell, people in Connecticut hate him. That somehow they have mysteriously turned on their favourite son is a hilariously bad take. Sycophantic even.

It's not just that Haberman sucks up for access, it's that she constructs fantasies to puff up both herself and her eternal subject. She should be writing screenplays instead of pretending to be a journalist.
