Donald Trump would be “a danger to the United States and to the world” if elected president, according to Indiana’s largest newspaper, The Indianapolis Star.

In an editorial published on Thursday, the newspaper widely condemned the Republican front-runner’s “simplistic proposals,” arguing he is unfit to occupy the Oval Office.

“Trump has demonstrated repeatedly during the months-long campaign that he is wholly unsuited to serve as president,” the editorial states. “He’s offered simplistic proposals on national security, job creation, immigration, international trade and foreign affairs. He has sounded off with appalling comments about women and others.

He’s appealed to voters’ worst instincts by trying to pit racial and ethnic groups against one another. He’s responded when challenged with reasonable questions from political opponents and from journalists with insults and diatribes that fall far outside the bounds of decent political discourse,” it continues.

Making Republicans look like the Devil incarnate is the only move they have. That’s why Republicans tend to do well once they begin debating on TV vs. Democrats. The people see the Republican isn’t the horned demon breathing fire through lips soaked with the blood of children they’ve been told.

I’m not alone here thinking that oligarchy (nouveau royalty, I think) will try to stop Trump at the ballot box. If that fails, they WILL try the ammo box. These aren’t the types to give up their power just because they lost. They aren’t the types who lose well.

Grain of salt considering the source. Obama was what? A state senator. Before that a socialist agitator - oh right, they call it a community organizer these days.

Trump-hater rhetoric is way more extreme than anything Trump says. By several orders of magnitude.

Sheesh, they make Donald look like he is the Anti-Christ. Looks like they overlooked on someone who is currently in the White Hut.

A danger to the United States of Rorting the Middle Class and the World of Get Whitey. That’s what I think the Indianapolis branch of the Comintern really meant.

Of course, the Star (locally known as "The Red Star" for decades)

For decades? Dan Quayle's relatives ran the paper from 1944 to 2000.
