People all across the nation have begun waking up to the toxic idea of Donald Trump. We are used to taking much for granted. Then, the coronavirus pandemic came to town and stole away our loved ones and even our freedom to mingle in person in any way. People realize that this president threatens the democracy now, and even strongly Republican newspapers have turned like a stone person, slowly but deliberately away from him.

The New Hampshire Union Leader, a conservative-leaning Manchester-based newspaper, endorsed Joe Biden for president on Sunday right before he came to town:

‘While Joe Biden is the clear choice for president, it would be a disservice to the country to send him to the White House without a backstop. We suggest splitting the ballot and electing a healthy dose of GOP senators and representatives. The best governance often comes through compromise. The civility of the Biden administration will help foster such compromise, but a blue wave would be nearly as disastrous for this country as four more years of Trump. It would result in a quagmire of big government programs that will take decades to overcome.’

Axios reported this was a 100-year change in policy:

‘It’s the first time the paper has endorsed a Democrat for president in over 100 years, after it broke from more than a century of backing Republicans to endorse libertarian Gary Johnson over President Trump in 2016.’

The newspaper entitled its editorial “Our Choice is Joe Biden.” What made them do it? Well, the Union Leader wrote:

 ‘This year’s general election ballot presents the voter with a dilemma. We have wrestled with this year’s choices, as we imagine many voters have. Up and down the ticket we are faced with choices in political ideologies, personalities, backgrounds and governing styles.’

The paper’s faint praise turned negative:

‘President Trump is not always 100 percent wrong, but he is 100 percent wrong for America. Trump has many admirable accomplishments from his first term in office. We can find much common ground with Trump supporters, including judicial appointments, tax policy, support for gun rights, even inroads to Middle East peace. Trump has been able to accomplish this despite many in the media and Congress working to stop him at every opportunity.’

Trump is worse than not fiscally conservative, he is 7 TRILLION dollars in debt:

‘While the last several trillion was in response to the COVID-19 economic crisis, at least the first three trillion was on the books well before the pandemic, while Trump was presiding over.’

The paper quoted Trump’s truly unscrupulous words:

‘The real tragedy of this scenario is that the runaway spending under the Trump administration has flashed dollar signs in the eyes of Capitol Hill Democrats. Trillions in unchecked spending has them clamoring to birth the social programs of their dreams. Federal spending is on an unsustainable path. The fact that it has continued under an allegedly conservative president is unbelievable.’

When it came to Trump’s actions regarding the pandemic, he failed. This is the reason:

‘[A] true leader must own any situation that happens on their watch. We may be turning a corner with this virus, but the corner we turned is down a dark alley of record infections and deaths. Mr. Trump is a self-proclaimed expert on a wide variety of topics, but when pushed on basic topics he doesn’t want to discuss, he very quickly feigns ignorance.’

Twitter world caught fire when the news came out about this endorsement. Check out what fellow Americans had to say below:
