(DC Pundit) – Is there a secret cocktail being mixed at The New York Times newsroom water cooler? Because that’s the only explanation that makes sense for the paper’s ongoing descent into self-parody. The “paper of record,” which once at least pretended to appear balanced, has now drifted into openly endorsing political fantasies that would make banana republic dictators blush.
They’ve flirted with the idea of a military coup against President Trump, mused about abolishing the U.S. Senate, dreamed of erasing the Electoral College, and floated schemes to pack the Supreme Court. And all of this — brace yourself — is in the name of “saving democracy.”

To protect democracy, the left’s flagship publication is arguing that we must dismantle its very foundations. That’s like saying the best way to save a burning house is to bulldoze it and build condos on top of the ashes.
The New York Times is pro-military coup against President Trump.

The New York Times helpfully reminding us why we have the second amendment
They are calling for nothing less than the complete abolition of the constitution because they are whiny cry babies who keep losing https://t.co/5BWHTnj2FG

Of course, none of this should come as a shock. The Times and its allies have quietly admitted what Republicans have known all along: Democrats don’t think they can win playing by the rules, so they’re lobbying to rewrite them. And if the “rules” just so happen to be the centuries-old pillars of our constitutional republic — the Senate, the Electoral College, and an independent Supreme Court — well, too bad.
What makes this spectacle even more insulting is the sanctimonious tone with which these same elites lecture the rest of us about democracy. Every op-ed, every Sunday show panel, every teary-eyed MSNBC monologue is some variation of: “Trump is a threat to democracy.” Yet behind closed doors, they’re sketching out blueprints for a government overhaul that would shred every safeguard our Founders put in place.
And here’s the kicker: President Trump and Republicans are in power now. Imagine if conservatives responded to the Times’ logic with, “You know what? Let’s just rewrite the rules ourselves.” Should Trump start pushing to dissolve the House of Representatives? Or maybe redraw the Supreme Court so it’s packed with constitutional hardliners? According to the Times’ playbook, that would be perfectly fine. Right?
Of course not. The same crowd screaming “threat to democracy!” would be pounding their keyboards in outrage, labeling it fascism, authoritarianism, and the end of America. The principle, apparently, is that democracy only survives when Democrats control it.
At the end of the day, the Times’ crusade isn’t about saving democracy. It’s about saving their grip on power. They’ve realized their ideas don’t sell with the American people, so instead of adjusting their agenda, they’re trying to change the rulebook.
That’s not democracy. That’s desperation. And thankfully, President Trump and Republicans aren’t buying it.
