At this point in time, is there any major paper actually endorsing Donald Trump?

This year, the choice isn’t between two capable major party nominees who happen to have significant ideological differences. This year, one of the candidates — Republican nominee Donald Trump — is, by unanimous consensus of the Editorial Board, unfit for the presidency.

From the day he declared his candidacy 15 months ago through this week’s first presidential debate, Trump has demonstrated repeatedly that he lacks the temperament, knowledge, steadiness and honesty that America needs from its presidents.

The editorial goes on to list the many reasons why Trump is unfit to be president.

Swirling Down The Drain

The diminishing Scaife publishing empire continues to slowly swirl down the drain....

Trib Total Media today said it will stop publishing a print edition of its Pittsburgh Tribune-Review newspaper Dec. 1 and will lay off 106 workers as it continues to downsize its print operations and beef up its digital products.

I've heard for many years that the Trib never made a nickel of profit, that it was propped up in large part by Dicky Scaife's trust fund money, but I'm really surprised how quickly its unraveled since little Dicky's death two years ago.  Now that the sweet, sweet wingnut money is gone, the reckoning continues.

The sad part is the people who worked for the paper do not deserve this fate.

What A Disaster

Reflecting on what I saw last night, I've never seen a major party presidential candidate so ill-prepared for a debate.  Trump was babbling and incoherent even when trying to explain his own agenda, such as it is.  The man made Sarah Palin look like a Rhodes scholar.

In contrast, Clinton looked, calm, cool, and knowledgeable while all Trump did was rant.

I want to see this to the end, but I need to go to bed.

Oh yeah, NATO.

Someone looks presidential. Someone else does not.

"How would you combat homegrown attacks?" You cannot.

He's so good with these computers its unbelievable.

It could ALSO BE SOMEONE ON THEIR BED WEIGHING 400 POUNDS.

Trump is now arguing that settling lawsuits without an admission of guilt is a plus.
