The New York Times editorial board took on Trump from the very first paragraph: It is hard to imagine a candidate more unworthy to serve as president of the United States than Donald Trump. He has proved himself morally unfit for an office that asks its occupant to put the good of the nation above self-interest. He has proved himself temperamentally unfit for a role that requires the very qualities wisdom, honesty, empathy, courage, restraint, humility, discipline that he most lacks.
Despite criticisms of her media strategy, the editorial board described Harris as a dedicated public servant who has demonstrated care, competence, and an unwavering commitment to the Constitution. They argue that while her approach might keep her safe from controversy, it ultimately does a disservice to the American people.
The board was unsparing in their assessment of Trump, stating that unless American voters stand up to him, Mr. Trump will have the power to do profound and lasting harm to our democracy. The warning illustrates the board's concern about the potential impact of his return to power.
