It's probably noteworthy to mention Rule #1: "Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have."
That being said, it's probably not too far off to believe that the whole thing is a forgery. It's just another run at the Administration using these Alinskyan tactics to sow internal mistrust and division.

While I don't put anything past anyone, who this is will be discovered. Everyone knows that. If it were discovered that this was a fabricated account, the repercussions for the NYT and whoever was involved with be significant. I don't think they are going to risk that.
In sum, as slimy as they may be, self-interest keeps them from taking this risk.

Ari Fleischer (yes THAT Ari Fleisher) on NPR had a really good point. The way to handle this if you are a staffer that can't stand your working environment and disagree with what the boss is doing is to resign and put your name to your objections.
This smarminess with the national media while claiming to be a patriot or a republican is just too much.
To the author: (John Huntsman?). You are neither a patriot nor a hero, for you have taken the coward's way, not the hero's. You claim to be a Republican, but I'll tell you that you have less class and dignity than Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer because at least their names are attached to their corruption and subterfuge and general malfeasance. You are not a not a rival or a friend, but a traitor and a spy.
Resign and go away.

I agree that it's likely some low-level nobody who is doing some major embellishing.
Leadership flows from the top. Trump does not conduct himself in a professional manner, and neither does anyone else in his administration. Every time a meeting adjourns, the Times phone lines are jammed up by people ducking into bathrooms to gossip. This person is likely trying to pad their nest so they can claim credit later and get into the headlines and onto the talk show circuit.

I disagree with the rhetoric labeling this person a traitor or a spy - mostly because it dilutes the very important meaning of those words.
They should resign. They should've resigned, THEN written it for attribution, THEN made a ton of money on the speaking tour.
And at least some people know who Huntsman is. I don't think its him.
There's one guy that, if its him, I won't be surprised one bit. And I doubt anyone would recognize his name, except some folks here plugged in to Indiana politics.

If it were discovered that this was fabricated, all the Times staff would have to do is claim they were trying to save the country from the Republicans and all would be forgiven.
Why don't we ask Dan Rather how that would work out.

Riiight!
And all this group are stingy. all that group are lazy, all those people smell bad, and everybody in that bunch is racist.
I have learned that there isn't anything that all of a group is.
The thing I don't understand is that if it were truly from the inside, why risk exposing yourself by writing the thing?
Wouldn't a proper tactic be to KEEP QUIET and do the "work" behind the scenes, assuming the alleged threat is so serious?
That's what leads me to believe it's a forgery, or in the very least whoever wrote it is very, very dumb.

DON'T look at the pants! If you can't see the crease, the tingle will go away (at least I think it did for Mathews)
