USA Today: Trump ‘Not Fit To Clean The Toilets’ At Obama Library

Daily Caller

In response to President Donald Trump’s severe critique of Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, USA Today wrote Tuesday that the president is “not fit to clean toilets in the Barack Obama Presidential Library.” The editorial board made the comments after Trump said Gillibrand “would do anything” to raise political money.

Gillibrand said Tuesday that Trump should resign as president because several women have accused him of various forms of sexual misconduct.

“A president who would all but call Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand a whore is not fit to clean the toilets in the Barack Obama Presidential Library or to shine the shoes of George W. Bush,” USA Today’s editors suggested.

They accused Trump of reaching a “a new low” by tweeting Tuesday that Gillibrand “would come to my office ‘begging’ for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them).” The implication of a sexual quid pro quo makes Trump unfit for office, according to the paper.

“With his latest tweet, clearly implying that a United States senator would trade sexual favors for campaign cash, President Trump has shown he is not fit for office. Rock bottom is no impediment for a president who can always find room for a new low,” the USA Today editors wrote.

In an apparent attempt to appear unbiased, the board insisted that their objections were not based on “the policy differences we have with all presidents or our disappointment in some of their decisions. Obama and Bush both failed in many ways. They broke promises and told untruths, but the basic decency of each man was never in doubt.”
