USA Today Makes First Ever Endorsement

[Content Note: Video may autoplay at link.]

In their 34-year history, the editorial board of USA Today has never made a presidential endorsement, but this year, they made an exception. They didn't do an endorsement, exactly. Instead, they took a position against a candidate. And I bet you can guess who it is!
This year, the choice isn't between two capable major party nominees who happen to have significant ideological differences. This year, one of the candidates — Republican nominee Donald Trump — is, by unanimous consensus of the Editorial Board, unfit for the presidency.

From the day he declared his candidacy 15 months ago through this week's first presidential debate, Trump has demonstrated repeatedly that he lacks the temperament, knowledge, steadiness, and honesty that America needs from its presidents.

...By all means vote, just not for Donald Trump.
Ouch.
