2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe Washington Post endorses Hillary Clinton for President.
IN THE gloom and ugliness of this political season, one encouraging truth is often overlooked: There is a well-qualified, well-prepared candidate on the ballot. Hillary Clinton has the potential to be an excellent president of the United States, and we endorse her without hesitation.
In a moment, we will explain our confidence. But first, allow us to anticipate a likely question: No, we are not making this endorsement simply because Ms. Clintons chief opponent is dreadful.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is dreadful, that is true uniquely unqualified as a presidential candidate. If we believed that Ms. Clinton were the lesser of two evils, we might well urge you to vote for her anyway that is how strongly we feel about Mr. Trump. But we would also tell you that was our judgment.
Fortunately, it is not.
