If we have learnt one thing from this Donald Trump campaign it’s that the Republican candidate has the ability to grab front pages with a few choice words.

Of course not all of that coverage is positive, and as America has had to come to terms with the fact that DT is a serious threat so certain newspapers have lashed out.

Back in February we saw the New York Daily News take aim with their front cover (HERE), and this time it’s the Boston Globe that is taking the piss. Poynter with their reasoning:

Although the cover looks like the front page for the entire newspaper, it’s actually the first page of the Boston Globe’s ideas section, which is tucked inside the daily edition…

The front page is packaged with an editorial that urges the Republican Party to disavow Trump’s candidacy, which the Globe calls a “toxic mix of violent intimidation, hostility to criticism, and explicit scapegoating of minorities.”

Here’s that ‘front page’ in full:

That text is rather tiny, so if you haven’t got your magnifying glass handy here’s the gist of the headline story:

The major story on the page, headlined “deportations begin,” describes Trump making good on a campaign pledge to expel millions of immigrants without legal authorization to work in the United States. It imagines the resources required for ousting droves of workers on a two-year timetable, including a “massive deportation force” triple the size of the current Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. Elsewhere on the front page is a story imagining the realization of a Trump proposal to impose stringent libel laws in the United States. Underneath the headline “new libel law targets ‘absolute scum’ in press,” the Globe quotes future-Trump calling three-fourths of journalists “totally dishonest people.”

It’s all fun and games until someone like him gets voted into the White House, although his last trip to the polls didn’t really go as planned.
