    If you actually care to understand, go back and read the past endorsements from 2016 and 2020 - read those former articles where the paper did not endorse trump in those elections. You’ll see how they present their position and then you can decide if it’s a measured, careful statement of objective fact (which, objectively, trump is unqualified, unfit and literally a convicted criminal many times over) or something that feels very biased and presents an unfounded argument to you.

    You could have done that, you can do that now, I don’t think you will though… I think you’re begging the question and not actually interested in the answer.

    And to your statement of “should the paper even be allowed to endorse?” I’m genuinely curious if you’re living in a dictatorship right now, because in theory, we have a free press in America. So when you say “allowed” who/what would stop them?
