Could this possibly help Trump get over the hump?

Sure helps Marshall....that's a huge deal and should be yet another zinger for Trump in one of the next two debates. Maybe he could even sneak a copy in.

Well, I did not realize that this newspaper was so Republican to begin with, so maybe it doesn't help him. I just figured in a race that has shown some signs of tightening, with a lot of blue collar Democrats, making Johnson seem like a legit alternative to some voters might peel off more Hillary voters. I may be wrong about that given the newspaper.

Knew it had endorsed Republicans previously, but had no idea of the extent....143 years wow! Still think it helps with the perception that Trump is an outsider, especially if they endorsed, Romney, McDonald McCain and Bush.

The Chicago Tribune has followed suit: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...ent-endorsement-edit-1002-20160930-story.html

Orchestrated endorsements to steer conservative votes away from Trump.

Establishment loves them some cankles.

Why wouldn't they just endorse Hilary?
