I know a lot of people are sensitive about Trump and want to defend him. I don't understand it, but I realize you actually believe what you are saying, and worse, what he is saying.

But despite your criticisms that the Globe should just ignore what Trump has done, responsible editors and managers in the media, the legitimate media, need to cover this story. It is unprecedented and outrageous, and has profound implications for the US, Canada, and the world. This is the presidency, and the president, and if he has effectively "gone rogue", as his tweets seem to suggest, this is very major news indeed.

We need to follow up. Sorry if your icon falls and your dreams are shattered, but we only have one precious planet and quite frankly Donald Trump seems to be a menace. Like they did with King Kong scaling the Empire State Building, the media has to keep the spotlight on him.
