on Saturday -- in the hope that it will persuade readers who are reluctant to cast a vote for another Clinton.
The paper’s editorial board explained that in any normal election year, it would compare the candidates on the issues side by side, but that it would be a fruitless endeavor this time around.
"A comparison like that would be an empty exercise in a race where one candidate -- our choice, Hillary Clinton -- has a record of service and a raft of pragmatic ideas, and the other, Donald Trump, discloses nothing concrete about himself or his plans while promising the moon and offering the stars on layaway," the board wrote.
The Times did not mince words in denouncing real estate mogul-turned-Republican-presidential-candidate Donald Trump as "the worst nominee put forward by a major party in modern American history." But the paper also said the best case to be made for Clinton isn’t that she’s not Trump -- it’s that she has the ability to meet the many challenges the U.S. faces.
