The Editorial Board of the Pittsburg Post-Gazette, October 31, 2020, endorsed Donald Trump to continue being the president of the United States in the article titled: The man and the record They listed a lot of reasons for their endorsement but almost all were, allegedly, false when fact checking their claims. Following are some major reasons they listed: “Under Donald Trump the economy, pre-COVID, boomed, like no time since the 1950s.” WRONG: “… growth in Trump’s initial three years in…
