Orlando paper rejects Trump.

"'We’re here to announce our endorsement for president in 2020, or, at least, who we’re not endorsing: Donald Trump,' the Orlando Sentinel said in its Tuesday staff editorial. 'Because there’s no point pretending we would ever recommend that readers vote for Trump.'”

Hillary Clinton scored like 46 out of 47 endorsements from every major daily newspaper nationwide in 2016 and it didn't mean fuck-all...

The front page is the rally. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/

I just thought it enjoyable that this rejection came on the day of that rally.

If a journalist writes it, they will simply repeat "Enemy of the people."

They hate us with the fire of a million suns.
