The latest American newspaper, The USA Today, has concluded that Republican candidate Donald Trump is not fit to become the President of the United States. Earlier, several other major publications, including The New York Times, Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times, have come out against Mr. Trump

The USA Today wrote to its readers, “By all means vote, just not for Donald Trump,” taking sides in a presidential campaign for the first time in 34 years. The newspaper’s editorial board was unanimous that the Republican candidate is unfit to be President but it did not endorse Democrat Hillary Clinton. “Whatever you do resist the siren song of a dangerous demagogue,” the paper wrote.

Besides the big papers, numerous smaller publications, some of them ardent conservatives for more than a century, have declared their opposition to Mr. Trump. The Arizona Republic, The Dallas Morning News and The Cincinnati Enquirer are among them.

The USA Today said that, “He is erratic. He is ill-equipped to be commander in chief. He traffics in prejudice. His business career is checkered. He isn’t leveling with the American people. He speaks recklessly. He has coarsened the national dialogue. He’s a serial liar.”

While the conventional media has taken a pointedly anti-Trump position, the Republican has accounted for that too in his campaign strategy. He constantly derides media platforms and individual journalists, but never misses the opportunity to give interviews to them.
