In a post on his social media outlet Truth Social, Trump blasted the New York Times, accusing them of “making up a story” and “refusing to write the facts” about the former president’s influence on the GOP’s lackluster performance in the election.

Do you think Trump should run in 2024?

“Incredible how dishonest the Fake News Media is. The Failing New York Times has gone crazy,” Trump wrote. “So many of the people I Endorsed went on to victory on Tuesday Night, nobody was even close, and they literally make up a story refusing to write the facts, and only quoting enemies and losers. Almost all of the people I endorsed WON, yet if you read the story from two Trump hating writers (who only do as they are told!), you would not even recognize the truth.”

“They truly are, THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!!!” he added.
