We can return to the explosive job creation, rising wages and general prosperity we had before the pandemic. We can have economic freedom and opportunity, and resist cancel culture and censorship. We can put annus horribilis, 2020, behind us and make America great again, again. We can do all this - if we make the right choice on Nov. 3.
The New York Post endorses President Donald J. Trump for re-election.
Elections are always about the economy, but never more so than this year.
So a reminder: Until the necessary shutdown to fight the coronavirus, the unemployment rate stood at 3.5 percent, the lowest in a half-century. African-American unemployment was 6.8 percent, the lowest figure since 1972.
How did President Trump do it? First, by trusting the free market. He championed lowering the corporate tax rate to a figure more in line with the rest of the industrialized world. He cut cumbersome regulations, particularly ones rammed through as President Obama was headed out the door.
A Joe Biden administration would be beholden to a socialist left that sees an opportunity to remake the nation in its vision.
Trump also rejected the globalist axiom that trade deals and unfettered immigration were better for Americans.
As this campaign has made clear, Joe Biden is a figurehead candidate for the Democratic Party. He rarely takes questions, sticks to his stump speeches, puts a lid on the day at the late hour of 9 a.m. There’s no reason to think his presidency would be any different.
President Trump will not be looking to remake the country. He will trust that America will, given support but not interference, bounce back. He will, in short, not get in the way. Re-electing him is the best choice for the United States.
Plus, it’ll really tick off Hollywood.

Not a surprise - but good to know!
Great news!
“Adults out of the workforce for years found new prospects; for 17 months of Trump’s term, there were 1 million more job openings than people unemployed.
That drove up salaries. For the first time in a decade, wage growth exceeded 3 percent year-over-year. It also narrowed the wealth gap. Between 2016 and 2019, real median incomes rose the most, 9 percent, for those without a high-school diploma”
The last time the New York Times endorsed a Republican for President was never.I think they were sad that Stalin never emigrated to the US so they could endorse him during the height of the forties when a certain number of their readers were commie sympathizers along with some of their staff like Walter Duranty. Their failure can come no too soon
Having grown up in New York I was confident it hadn’t happened in my 50-year lifetime, but I checked and the last Republican endorsed by the New York Times was Dwight Eisenhower, twice, and before that, Thomas Dewey (the latter was a New Yorker so it figured.)
Did NY Times emdorse eisenhower
Yes ...!!! Great news ..
