So many are simply discounting this editorial as just another liberal screed, the way they discounted the LA Times, the NY Times, and every other newspaper that has endorsed Hillary. Their minds can't be changed, and they will support him to the death, even as the evidence piles up against him. There's nothing we can do.

Republicans blame outside themselves. Democrats introspect more.

... he will crash and burn in front of a massive audience.

I'm hopeful about the future but I also know history and realize that much of the American public today, fed propaganda 24/7, is already a polemical witch burning mob of ignoramuses.

conspiracy theorists and (apparently) conventional conspiracy theorists. The conventional conspiracy theorists might want to re-examine their beliefs lest their respective fields of endeavor become moribund.

It's a crying shame it took the media THIS long to realize this. Thanks to the media, there's a high possibility that the orange moron will be just inches away from the nuke button. Jesus.

Agreed. It totally slays me that - just the other day, the major newspapers decided, AT LONG LAST, to use the "L-word" ("Lie&quot to apply to coverage of Donald Trump. They're just now getting around to it?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!! They're about 20 years late. Starting during the first round of Clinton Persecution - when it was about him, not her. And they just couldn't give Ken Starr enough attention. And throughout bush/cheney - the best anybody could do was write a flaccid joke of a single headline "Prevaricating President?" They TOTALLY screwed the pooch on "coverage" of bush/cheney. Let those two war criminals get away with murder, quite literally. NO ONE was held accountable. Not dubya, not cheney, not contradicta, not wolfowitz, not rummy, not dougie feith, not elliott abrams, not kkkarl rove. Only ONE single individual, scooter libby, ever had to face anything remotely punitive, and even with him, only minimally - with cheney growling and grousing to the last minute, trying to talk george w. dry-drunk into issuing a presidential pardon to him (or as cheney put it - "leaving a soldier on the battlefield&quot .

What an absolute disgrace.
