All of this happened during the Obama administration. Has nothing to do with Trump.

Yet he's mentioned four times in the article, which should tell you something.

  The only thing this tells me is that you did not read the text surrounding those mentions. They all portray him in a rather neutral light, except perhaps the "again on Saturday disputed his intelligence agencies’ findings on Russia and the election". You can hardly criticize that though. You could even argue that the last mention paints him in a somewhat positive light, >The Trump administration says it will soon announce revisions to the system, making it more transparent.

    What I got from the article is that the NYT is leaning towards publishing articles regarding hacking or other meddling into US affairs, especially by Russia, in order to generate public perception of the Russia issue as a large and embarrassing failure. >"again on Saturday disputed his intelligence agencies’ findings on Russia and the election". You can hardly criticize that though. In Hanoi yesterday, Trump made the statement that, "I'm with our agencies, especially as currently constituted with their leadership," regarding Russian intervention in the election. USA Today reported that, "Trump says he believes intelligence assessment that Russia interfered in election — but Putin does not." https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/11/11/trump-says-he-believes-intelligence-assessment-russia-interfered-eleelect-reeddnent-mcne-kintinettid/855783001/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/11/11/trum...

      >Russia issue as a large and embarrassing failure. Are you saying it is not? >In Hanoi yesterday, Trump made the statement that, "I'm with our agencies, especially as currently constituted with their leadership," regarding Russian intervention in the election. USA Today reported that, "Trump says he believes intelligence assessment that Russia interfered in election — but Putin does not." Sure, he said that. But he also said the other things. Does intentionally making conflicting statements somehow justify the ones that don't sound so good?
