Thread: Boston paper prints fake anti-Trump front page

Boston paper prints fake anti-Trump front page
Trevor Hughes, USA TODAY 10:38 p.m. EDT April 9, 2016

The Boston Globe printed a mock front page Sunday, ripping what the paper’s editorial board called Donald Trump’s “flippant and reckless” White House run and contending his vision for the country is “profoundly un-American."

The mock front page screams “Deportations to Begin” in large type and reminds readers of the GOP frontrunner's promises to build a wall on the Mexican border and target “scum” reporters. It also suggests that the military would refuse to kill family members of the Islamic State; contends that President Trump’s actions would spark a trade war with China and Mexico; and jokes that Yellowstone National Park would be renamed Trump National Park, which is less of a “loser” name.

The Globe’s editorial board called the page, which is dated April 9, 2017, “the front page we hope we never have to print.” The fake page appears inside the paper, not on the actual front of the Sunday edition.

In an accompanying editorial, the paper’s leaders called upon delegates to the Republican National Convention to choose someone else, such as House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., or Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor and party’s presidential nominee four years ago. The editorial board said it merely took Trump’s claims to their logical conclusions.

"The toxic mix of violent intimidation, hostility to criticism, and explicit scapegoating of minorities shows a political movement is taking hold in America. If Trump were a politician running such a campaign in a foreign country right now, the U.S. State Department would probably be condemning him,” The Globe editorial board wrote. "It is better to lose with principle than to accept a dangerous deal from a demagogue.”

Trump and other Republican candidates are racing toward the party’s July nominating convention in Cleveland, and it appears Trump won’t have the nomination sewn up before then. That raises the likelihood of a contested convention in which other candidates, including those who haven’t been campaigning, could seek the nomination.

On Super Tuesday, Trump easily won the Massachusetts Republican primary, collecting 22 delegates and nearly 50% of the vote.

Trump's campaign didn't immediately respond to a request for comment late Saturday.

Boston Globe, that is despicable!! A fake front page?!! Disgusting.

Americans want illegal aliens deported and our laws enforced, that makes it American, not UnAmerican.

We want a honest free press, a free press that tells the truth, not one that lies to US with fake front pages, an honest free press is American, not UnAmerican.

What is wrong with you??!! If your editorial board likes another candidate, then just write a nice article about them. Apparently you're so filled with open borders mania, you couldn't think clearly enough to do that. Instead you want to attack the front-runner of the Republican race for the party nomination with lies and fake front pages.

That is awful, it's worse than USSR propaganda. We expect this kind of thing in many other countries, but we certainly don't expect it here in our little land of liberty with a free press protected by the will of the American People. And we don't protect it so you can lie, we protect it so you can tell us the truth about what's going on in our country.

So far, the only person willing and able to do that is a citizen named Donald J Trump. You might follow his example and tell us some truth instead of trying to shut him down with lies and fake news to shut him up.

Probably on the soros payroll...

Sunday at a campaign rally in Rochester, NY, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump reacted to The Boston Globe running a dummy front page imagining what the news in the United States would be like if Trump were elected president.

Trump said, “How about that stupid Boston Globe? It’s worthless. Sold for a dollar. Did you see that story? The whole front page — they made up a story that Trump — they pretended Trump as the president. And they made up—the whole front page is a make believe story, which is really, no different from the whole paper for the whole thing. I mean the whole thing is no different.”

Remember when the Boston Globe was an important newspaper that everybody wanted to read? ME NEITHER.

Lining the bird cage with it is too good a use for it. Besides, the bird would probably be offended.

Our media has gone nuts. Trump has exposed so much that they didn't but could have, they hate him with a passion. They could have reported the truth about illegal immigration and trade; they could have reported on NATO and its obsolescence and irrational cost-sharing; they could have reported on Muslimism and ISIS infiltration through emigation follies; they could have reported on Iran's takeover of Iraq and it's plan to invade Saudi Arabia through Yemen; they could have reported on the outrageous sole sourcing of the federal government that denies a proper bidding process; they could have done their jobs and not been embarrassed and humiliated by Donald Trump when he exposes all these things in 30 second sound bytes.

They've gone berserk with Trump Envy. Envy is one of the 7 deadly sins. And wow, for good reason.
