The New York Post, Rupert Murdoch’s tabloid, wants to vote for Trump

The New York Post, a tabloid popular with conservatives and owned by Rupert Murdoch‘s media empire, called on Friday in an editorial to vote for Donald Trump.

“Donald Trump is the right choice,” he writes of the daily priorities for the future of the United States: “a secure border,” “safe cities,” “a prosperous economy for all based on taxes and regulations low”, the authority. of parents and America “respected on the international scene”.

Picking up on the attacks from the Republican camp against Kamala Harris, the New York newspaper assures that the Democratic candidate is hiding her game and “does not want Americans to know how radical what is her program”.

“Thank you for this magnificent support,” Donald Trump wrote on his Truth Social network, two days before a meeting in the hall of fame of Madison Square Garden in New York.

This support is not surprising, but the New York Post has been able to be much tougher in recent years towards Donald Trump.

In July 2022, an editorial criticized his suffering when the supporters violently attacked the Capitol in Washington on January 6, 2021, to prevent the certification of the results of the election won by Joe Biden. At the time, the New York Post wrote: “Trump has proven that he is not fit to be the leader of this country again.”

And due to the November 2022 mid-term elections, which were mixed for the Republicans, an editor wrote in the columns of the “NY Post”: “it is time for Trump to abandon politics”.
