In two editorials last week,
The Washington Post inadvertently made the case for Donald Trump to be president. To be sure the
Post still
believes that Trump is a "unique" threat to our republic, but the two editorials highlighted the dangers of President Hillary Clinton.
On Tuesday, an editorial opposing the impeachment of IRS Commissioner John Koskinen asserted that the behavior at the center of the controversy, "was more about bureaucratic obliviousness than purposeful anti-conservative activity." Later the editorial asserted that the whole incident was a "non-scandal," which mostly took place under Koskinen's predecessor Lois Lerner.
Absent from the editorial was any acknowledgement that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit
ruled last month that the targeting of conservative group is ongoing and that the IRS could not be trusted to stop the practice on its own.
