Donald Trump Is Unfit for a Second Term. He failed the tests of leadership and betrayed America. Voters must stand up to him in November.
The New York Times ^ | Jul 11, 2024 02:11 PM | The Editorial Board

Next week, for the third time in eight years, Donald Trump will be nominated as the Republican Party’s candidate for president of the United States. A once great political party now serves the interests of one man, a man as demonstrably unsuited for the office of president as any to run in the long history of the Republic, a man whose values, temperament, ideas and language are directly opposed to so much of what has made this country great.

It is a chilling choice against this national moment. For more than two decades, large majorities of Americans have said they are dissatisfied with the direction of the country, and the post-Covid era of stubborn inflation, high interest rates, social division and political stagnation has left many voters even more frustrated and despondent.

The Republican Party once pursued electoral power in service to solutions for such problems, to building “the shining city on a hill,” as Ronald Reagan liked to say. Its vision of the United States — embodied in principled public servants like George H.W. Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney — was rooted in the values of freedom, sacrifice, individual responsibility and the common good. The party’s conception of those values was reflected in its longstanding conservative policy agenda, and today many Republicans set aside their concerns about Mr. Trump because of his positions on immigration, trade and taxes. But the stakes of this election are not fundamentally about policy disagreements. The stakes are more foundational: what qualities matter most in America’s president and commander in chief.

Mr. Trump has shown a character unworthy of the responsibilities of the presidency. He has demonstrated an utter lack of respect for the Constitution, the rule of law and the American people...

It’s ironic how they never site any proven facts that support their denigrating lies they spew about President Trump. Empty accusations are only for the mentally deficient fools who hate Trump because they refuse to accept truth.

As usual, this piece is long on accusations but short on specifics. What exactly did he do? Why doesn’t anyone know?

I’m sure even the lowest of the low-info would recognize this screed as complete BS. This is hysteria, not journalism. Worst of all, it’s not even honest hysteria, built as it is on lies that the writers know are lies as they type them.

When I was 6-9 years old, I carried my Grannies Sunday NYT paper to her place for her. Granny was so special to me. She walked me to and from Sunday school every week. When I went to Vietnam in June 1968 the preacher’s wife let me park my 67 Olds 442 in her garage for a year.

“They need to tell it to their comrades—North Koreans.”

They were goodbuddies for a long time. The Norks used to run full page ads in the Slimes. Don’t know if they still do it.

New York Slimes has an editorial board populated by wing nuts who have sought ways to indulge TDS in as many bizarre twists as they can.

PDJT is one of the greatest presidents our nation has elected. He secures a government for and by the People. He unifies America instead of dividing it, he secures our borders, and he brings a hugely successful free economy asedon our own huge energy resources.

The New York Slimes has suported fascism all the days of its existence, right from the 1930s when it supported the fascists of Europe , and remained silent about the genocide of the Jews.Mark Levin has exposed their sordid history.

A pox on the Slimes. They have become a journalistic laughing stock by ignoring the veryu real policy issues of this election. They want to make this election about hatred of one man.Its all they have, certainly they have no record to report that would inspire any voter for their sordid side of our body politic.

LANDSLIDE FOR TRUMP !
