Houston (TX) Chronicle Endorses HRC: Trump is "a danger to the republic"

(The Chronicle had endorsed Mitt Romney in 2012)

The Houston Chronicle, one of the largest newspapers in Texas, is endorsing Hillary Clinton for president and calling Donald Trump a "danger to the Republic."

"Any one of Trump's less-than-sterling qualities - his erratic temperament, his dodgy business practices, his racism, his Putin-like strongman inclinations and faux-populist demagoguery, his contempt for the rule of law, his ignorance - is enough to be disqualifying," said the editorial board on Friday.


"His convention-speech comment, 'I alone can fix it,' should make every American shudder. He is, we believe, a danger to the Republic."
