The editors of the New York Times, who meet in an editorial committee, believe that former American president Donald Trump is “not suitable” to be re-elected as president. They had already signed a text asking Joe Biden to withdraw from the race.
New York, September 30, 2024. The prestigious American newspaper The New York Times announced in an editorial published this Monday, September 30, its support for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris for the November presidential election.
Candidate Harris actually introduces the “only patriotic option” during the election, judging the daily newspaper especially in its text.
However, his name is not mentioned before the fourth paragraph, because the editorial committee, which signed the text, prefers to first criticize Donald Trump’s claim.
“This bleak, disconcerting reality — that Donald Trump is unfit to be president — should be enough to dismay any voter who cares about our country and the stability of our democracy. denial of re-election. »
The New York Times editorial board brings together distinguished editorial writers and is expected to reflect the values of the media.
He had already asked President Biden to throw in the towel in the race shortly after his disastrous debate against Republican candidate Donald Trump last June.
The signatories acknowledge that the vice president “may not be the perfect candidate for all voters, especially those who are frustrated and angry about the failures of our government than what has been broken.” to correct.”
But they urge Americans to “compare Ms. Harris’ record to that of her rival,” saying the candidate is more “a necessary alternative.”
The New York Times editorial board has not endorsed a Republican candidate in a presidential race since 1956, with Dwight Eisenhower.
But this election is about “something more fundamental” than “competing policies and principles” in a two-party system, the committee says.
He believes that, this time, “if the American voters do not stand up to him, Mr. Trump will have the power to do deep and lasting damage to our democracy.”
The editor says that a second term for the billionaire “would be far more damaging and divisive than the first.”
