On Sunday, the Boston Globe’s Opinions section took the “stop Trump” movement to a whole new level: publishing a satirical front page of what the country might look like under a President Trump.

Deportations. Trade wars. New libel laws targeting the media. A decidedly dark vision of Trump’s America.

“It is an exercise in taking a man at his word,” the editorial board wrote in an accompanying op-ed explaining the decision to run the fake front page. “And his vision of America promises to be as appalling in real life as it is in black and white on the page.

WNU Editor: The Boston Globe's "satire page" is here. Donald Trump's response is here .... Trump calls The Boston Globe ‘stupid,’ ‘worthless’ after scathing editorial (Boston Globe).
