The election is tomorrow, and President Donald Trump just notched an unprecedented endorsement from an historically liberal newspaper for his handling of the economy in the key swing state of Pennsylvania.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Editorial Board officially endorsed Trump. The newspaper had not endorsed a single Republican for president since 1972. That’s 48 years ago. The Editorial Board wrote: “Under Donald Trump the economy, pre-COVID, boomed, like no time since the 1950s. Look at your 401(k) over the past three years. Unemployment for Black Americans is lower than it has ever been, under any president of either party.” On trade, The Editorial Board said that Trump “has put America first, just as he said he would.” In a complete rebuke to Democrats, the newspaper said that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s economic plan was filled with “Cuckoo California dreams.” [Emphasis added.]

These contrary endorsements must really be confounding the usual suspects at the alphabet networks. I wonder if James Carville has a specially-cleaned trash can ready to put over his head?
