Editorial: Donald Trump's message of hatred and blame tears at America's fabric

This man is manifestly unfit for office.

A serial abuser of women, an inveterate liar, a racist.

Donald Trump is, as President Barack Obama has said, America's "home-grown demagogue".

That he secured the candidacy of the Republicans will stand as a shameful indictment of the once Grand Old Party. But it is this party that for years fanned the flames of division and hatred from which Donald Trump emerged.
