How many Romney papers will stick with Trump?

Any paper that endorsed Obama in 08, but not in 12, will flip to Hillary. Especially the Des Moines Register and New Hampshire Union Leader for obvious reasons.

I doubt we will see very many newspaper endorsements for Trump. There will probably be an uptick in not endorsing.

Any paper that takes some bs non-endorsement stance is a joke and a HP.

The only newspaper endorsements Trump has hope of getting are the New York Post and some of the dailies in smaller Southern cities (Tulsa, Shreveport, Richmond, etc).

Of course, have newspaper endorsements ever actually helped a candidate?

I don't think anyone is asking that question this cycle.  I think the question is who will stand up to Der Führer.  I'm definitely keeping tabs on who endorses this creep.
