I was stunned to read this piece on Red State today entitled: The Arizona Republic’s Response To Death Threats After Endorsing Hillary Is Just Perfect.
Seems the Arizona Republic for the first time in its 125 year history failed to endorse the republican candidate and elected to endorse Hillary Clinton. Nope, not part of any mainstream left wing media sellout, they just couldn't support the Donald and all the hatred, rage and baggage that comes along with him.
Apparently that caused outrage by the AZ dumpster divers who went out of their way to demonstrate just how right the paper was. Death threats poured into the paper while their staff of reporters and sales staff were abused and insulted by the cretins supporting cheeto Jesus.
It speaks volumes as to what this country is in for in the coming months. The Donald's hate filled rhetoric has driven his legions of orange lovers to the edge of the cliff and when he loses, who knows how ugly it will get? His rantings are beyond the point of logic and reason and consequently as the dumpster retreats to his penthouse, the d-divers will be left to find ways to take it out on someone.
In this case, the Arizona Republic and it's employees were targeted, and that's for a mere endorsement (i wonder if for the past 125 years dems acted this way towards them?). What was so especially compelling was the logic by the Arizona Republic in endorsing Hillary. Here's a snippet: "We made our choice soberly. We knew it would be unpopular with many people. We knew that, although we had clearly stated our objections to Trump, it would be a big deal for a conservative editorial board in a conservative state to break ranks from the party. We chose patriotism over party. We endorsed the Democrat."
Or you can read the entire response to the crazies by the AZ Republic here, starting with this teaser: As someone who has spent a career in the business of words, it’s unusual to find myself speechless. Yet, there I was, a little more than two weeks ago. What is the correct response, really, to this? "YOU'RE DEAD. WATCH YOUR BACK." "WE WILL BURN YOU DOWN." "YOU SHOULD BE PUT IN FRONT OF A FIRING SQUAD AS A TRAITOR."
Congrats Donald, you've driven the goofs straight off the cliff.
Spare us the righteous indignation. If Trump were ahead and had a better chance of winning you'd hear at least that much from the lunatic left, and probably much worse.

You mean he's not ahead? Damn, and i just know there are more Trump signs out there. And, and his rally draw millions, even in venues of a thousand.
Thank god it's finally starting to sink in; saves us the histrionics come November 9.
Awww, poor trump supporters coming to the realization that their loser candidate is facing a crushing defeat in about 3 weeks or so. I read the piece the OP is referencing and it was right on point. Trump represents the worse of America and his lunatic following is all to willing to embrace it.
And the kids that delivered the newspaper were being spit on by adults. Stay classy trumpkins
They still let kids deliver newspapers? Even my local fish wrap (aka WaPo) stopped letting kids deliver papers years ago.
