Not only not positive for His Donaldness, but so early in the cycle too. I wonder how many endorsements he will get.

Didnā€™t the Houston Chronicle already refuse to endorse Trump a month or so ago?
Two major papersā€”neither of them left leaningā€”ripping Trump?
This should make Texas competitive.

Place whatever stock one does in newspaper endorsements, but the complete inability of either the Houston Chronicle or Dallas Morning News to make a ā€œcountry firstā€ endorsement of Hillary is pathetic.

And it means these strongly worded memos are worthless.

Soā€¦I guess the Dallas Morning News just made the SHT LISTā€¦it ā€˜mustā€™ be a crummy newspaperā€¦so sad.

I donā€™t agree. This is the right approach to convince conservatives. Endorse Clinton, and theyā€™ll just get a tin foil hat response. This approach plants the seed.

ā€œRegardless, his ideas are so far from Republicanism that they have spawned a new description: Trumpism.ā€

Iā€™m not saying this is wrong but it seems like a dodge to avoid the fact that at least a plurality of Republicans donā€™t seem to care about what the paper calls ā€œRepublicanism.ā€

ā€¦Trump does not champion Republican principles like individual liberty and a strong national defense.

Our military is so overfunded today that it would take someone proposing a 90% cut in funding for me to accuse them of not supporting a ā€œstrong national defense.ā€

That said, itā€™s a pretty surprising editorial, given the source.

Isnā€™t Republicanism defined as keeping Mexicans from coming to the United States?

A Clinton endorsement looks more like this, and itā€™s from a republican who heads up r4c16.org, a republican group wholeheartedly supporting Clinton.

Iā€™m not surprised by the Dallas Morning News. I am surprised by the poll that shows Hillary in a close race in Texas.

Wow.

Well, isnā€™t that special. No nod to Johnson, not even a eye roll towards Clinton.

My goodness, there are some decent newspapers left! Drip, drip, dripā€¦I wonder if he will even make it to November. Heā€™s just itching to start up his right-wing/Nazi ā€œjournalismā€ outlet. I guess Roger needs a new job since he left Faux Nooz.

Meh. Well, maybe they GOPers will just stay home. The Morning News is a hack outfit that is too chickenshit to actually tell voters that Clinton is qualified. F*ck them.

Those are American and Democratic principles. Not Republican.

Face it, Dallas Morning News: Trump is a Republican. You just donā€™t like how it reflects on you.
