Trump deserves 2nd term even though he’s a ‘wretched human being,’ newspaper says [Spokane Spokesman-Review]
Fox News ^ | 10/28/2020 | Dom Calicchio

In an endorsement published this week, a Washington state newspaper said it agrees with President Trump’s critics that the commander-in-chief has numerous faults — but that doesn’t mean Trump doesn’t deserve a second term. “We recommend voting for him anyway,” the Spokesman-Review of Spokane wrote Sunday about the president, “because the policies that Joe Biden and his progressive supporters would impose on the nation would be worse.”

The editorial described the 2020 presidential election as a choice between “a wretched human being [Trump] whose policies and instincts for helping America thrive are generally correct,” and a “doddering, doting uncle [Biden] who would hand out gifts the nation can’t afford in order to win people’s love.”

“Given that choice,” the endorsement, written by publisher William Stacy Cowles, concluded, “economic policy and principle should prevail. Vote for Donald Trump.”

In making his argument, Cowles listed what he called “Trump’s offenses.” “He panders to racists and prevents sensible immigration reform in a nation built on immigration labor and intellect,” he wrote. “He tweets conspiracy theories. He’s cavalier about COVID-19 and had led poorly through the pandemic. He seeks to dismantle the Affordable Care Act without proposing a replacement. He denies climate change.”

But Cowles also argued that the policies of Biden, should he win the presidency, “would strike at the economic well-being of the country.” …

This is how you support Trump when surrounded by Communists who would murder you for supporting Trump. They may as well be blinking H-O-S-T-A-G-E in Morse code...

Given the typically debased & degenerate moral character of the average Trump DEEP STATE adversary,.....this writer is an obvious abject fool.

Spokane Spokesman_Review isn’t fit for wrapping moldy maggoty pestilent garbage in, but they deserve credit for stating the correct conclusion.

" “He panders to racists and prevents sensible immigration reform in a nation built on immigration labor and intellect."

When the nation was emerging out of a huge recession, bringing in more people to impact the employment situation was not racist. It was pragmatic. Did this twit think we have forgotten?

Trump uses his ‘filter’ different than most because he can. But he’s still a NY City rough and tumble guy......the Cuomos are just like that.... they just hide it and put on a front. Trump doesn’t hide who he is.

I will say that the gentler, softer side of Trump isn’t often seen in public....but his family and people that know him have spoken about his caring “big heart” often.

William Stacy Cowles should cover his head in shame over this.

Seriously, Trump is a racist?? Even after giving a full pardon to that black lady he freed from prison?

What an anal orifice.

“Trump is wretched”, says the newspaper owner whose family is one of the biggest Planned Parenthood supporters in the community.
