LA Times (October 18)
Donald Trump is famous for lashing out, but now he is also “targeting the very political system in which he is competing for the presidency. He is claiming that this election is ‘rigged’…. This is dangerous demagoguery, even for Trump.” A fundamental democratic principle is “respect for the outcome of elections even if your candidate isn’t the winner.”
New York Times (August 12)
“When Mr. Trump fans racist rage against the president, suggests that gun owners take up arms against Mrs. Clinton, or speaks darkly of a ‘rigged’ election, he is not trying to woo Republican skeptics, independents or undecided voters. He is appealing to the mob.”
