Rethug Paper Breaks 100 Year Tradition


New Hampshire's Manchester Union Leader, the right-wing paper that has endorsed the Republican candidate for President for the past 100 years, couldn't stomach the idea of neo-fascist demagogue Donald "Rump" Trump as President, so they have endorsed goofy Libertarian candidate and man who'll be selling bongs in the near future Gary "What's An Aleppo?" Johnson. Here's what publisher Joseph W. McQuaid had to say about Rump:
"The man is a liar, a bully, a buffoon. He denigrates any individual or group that displeases him. He has dishonored military veterans and their families, made fun of the physically frail, and changed political views almost as often as he has changed wives."
The Union Leader's impact in the state's Rethuglican community is significant, although they endorsed another bully and buffoon in the Rethug primary last fall, namely Gov. Chris "Krispykreme" Christie, who proceeded to finish 6th.
