    Uhh, stating that Kamala Harris would make a better President than Donald Trump is a factual statement, not a biased one.

    There is no objective measure to assess the performance of a President where Trump would exceed Harris.

      Just so you know, Saltesc has made a string of bad faith comments that are pro right-wing bs.

      I don’t disagree at all. Trump is an absolute madman, and it’s amazing to me that he’s even in the conversation for running for president.

      But, facts need to be cited, always. If a newspaper endorses Harris and says she’s a better candidate than Trump, they had better explain with evidence why this is the case. Not doing so would be just as biased, and one of the cornerstones of a Democratic campaign is truth.

        Well, yeah. Presumably that’s why WaPo had a whole editorial devoted to it, and not just one sentence that said “Harris will be a better President than Trump.”
