NY Times columnist Charles Blow observed simply that “the slime factor was overwhelming," and he didn't buy the gaudy act which Donald Trump brought to the offices of the NY Times, ostensibly in an attempt to mend fences with that newspaper, but, more broadly, with the many Americans upon whom he had scorned, demonized and heaped abuse during his Presidential campaign. Trump intended it as "a grand, conciliatory “Presidential” gesture, -- days after he named a White Supremacist, Neo-Nazi enabler as his closest personal advisor" but Mr. Blow said: "You don’t get a pat on the back for ratcheting down from rabid after exploiting that very radicalism to your advantage. Unrepentant opportunism belies a staggering lack of character and caring that can’t simply be vanquished from memory. You did real harm to this country and many of its citizens, and I will never — never— forget that."
