Cynical? You bet ... after my personal experience with their incredible bias 30 years ago and their steady descent even further left since then. |
The LA Times has a completely different ownership and editorial stall than it did thirty years ago. Now owned by Tribune Publishing. |

So does our local McClatchey paper. Like the LAT, the new management is even more biased towards the far left. |

| Consider the fact that the " far left" today is far more to the right than it was under the Eisenhower administration. Dwight Eisenhower was considered a communist sympathizer and a traitor to our country by the far right. People such as the John Birch Society thought he should be tried for treason. Obama is a conservative by comparison, yet we still hear the same cries.Eisenhower was a progressive Republican, something that sadly no longer exists. |

I don't know if Trump will win, but I know he'd be a better military commander than any president in the last 50 years. Why? BecauseThe military is all about logistics. The real estate development business is also about logistics. He has a very militaristic and pragmatic outlook. Worst case? He humiliates Hillary. |
