"I think what you're reacting to is that, at the moment, Biden is an unpopular president seeking a second term while Trump is a popular figure inside his party who is winning primary races. I wouldn't necessarily compare the two."

This is just exposing that you don't actually read the New York Times.

Here's an article on the plight of Gazans in Rafah in the face of a potential Israeli invasion.

Here's an overview on the gang situation in Haiti as the government is functionally collapsing.

And here's an article discussing the increasingly common practice of restaurants charging significant cancellation fees.

Meanwhile, the NY Post has such great stories as:

  • Kate Middleton officially hits rock bottom
  • Rudy Giuliani's ex engaged to Palm Beach energy exec after six months of dating in 'whirlwind romance' (Exclusive!)
  • Unions want full control of schools and our kids — we can't let Albany allow it
  • Activists lobbying to 'morally' allow trans kids to change their bodies are only doing more harm

The formal news section of the NY Post is not that different than the NY Times. It's just not the focus of the NYP. And the NYT isn't reporting anything beyond the most basic of news events. It's pretty much the same thing as reading the AP. I can't remember the last time they got a real scoop or any inside sources on anything.
