Our Dishonest President: L.A. Times editorial eviscerates Trump
https://www.yahoo.com/news/our-dishonest-president-l-a-times-editorial-eviscerates-trump-195956411.html?soc_src=social-sh&soc_trk=twSince Donald Trump began his stunning ascent from real estate mogul and reality television star to wall-building, Muslim-ban-promising Republican candidate to GOP nominee to president, there have been plenty of piercing editorials about him and his policies.
