"or in future presidential races."

So basically, they're done endorsing candidates.

Seems fine.

Yeah, after decades of endorsing libs, wapo has no confidence the left can put up a quality candidate ever again. It totally makes sense.

 

[WhiteMousse]

But did they endorse Trump?

I think the "ever again" kinda dispels the "no confidence" claim.

Confidence ebbs and flows and nobody is stupid enough to think a good candidate cannot rise on either side "ever".

Elections - Jeff Bezos killed Washington Post endorsement of Kamala Harris, paper reports

Indeed, there's just a distinction between legal and illegal suppression. Publishers have the final say in what gets published if they want to. Nothing illegal about it but it's still wrong. I agree. But, the Trumpanzees okaying this are the same type to complain about their rights being...

They endorsed Obama, Hillary and Biden.

For a democratic leaning newspaper not to endorse this time around, its kinda a big deal.

It's not really.

If they're not going to get involved at all in future, it's totally irrelevant.

Bezos apparently invested in a PAC aimed at getting military veterans into politics - it would make sense that, as the owner of the Washington Post, he would not want to alienate one side or the other. He will want military vets in on the left and the right.

He seems to be playing the only truly smart game left in town for any business - neutrality.

Ya'll have a problem doing math. As I posted above, WaPo endorsed Hillary and Biden. Um, yeah, that was AFTER Bezos bought the paper in 2013

But not after 2018, when Bezos involved himself directly in non-partisan politics.

Amazon's Jeff Bezos donates $10m to back military veterans

The Amazon founder donates to a bipartisan political action committee aimed at electing veterans.

Now the Washington Post is non-partisan.

This isn't about Harris or Trump, lol
