For Trump, two days filled with backpedaling and baseless attacks

NEW YORK — In under 48 hours this week, Donald Trump’s social media account promoted a video featuring a term frequently associated with Nazi Germany and later removed it. He suggested he was open to states restricting access to contraceptives and then walked that back. He falsely accused President Biden of being “locked & loaded” to “take me out.” And in between, he was in court as his legal team rested its case in his ongoing criminal trial.
