I read the NYT. Could you please provide an instance where say Gail Collins calls Trump a Nazi or a fascist.

Here is a link to help you out:

https://query.nytimes.com/search/sitesearch/?action=click&contentCollection&region=TopBar&WT.nav=searchWidget&module=SearchSubmit&pgtype=collection#/gail+collins+fascist+trump/

you can try this as well:

https://query.nytimes.com/search/sitesearch/?action=click&contentCollection&region=TopBar&WT.nav=searchWidget&module=SearchSubmit&pgtype=collection#/gail+collins+Nazi+trump/

A couple articles come up under Nazi, however she is explaining that Trump is disowning those who salute him as such.

You can also try Maureen Dowd, Nicholas Kristoff, etc...

I think you will some guests may have drawn reference, but I do not believe any full time NYT columnist has gone there

I am no fan of Trump but to maintain any perspective one should base ones' argument on facts, etc., and not veer off into hyperbole.
