Donald Trump stands without any real rivals as the worst American president in modern history. He is a man unworthy of the office he holds, writes the editorial board. nyti.ms/356M8M8
Donald Trump’s ruinous tenure has gravely damaged the United States at home and around the world. nyti.ms/356M8M8
Donald Trump has subsumed the public interest to the profitability of his business and political interests. He has shown a breathtaking disregard for the lives and liberties of Americans. nyti.ms/356M8M8
Even as Americans wait to vote in lines that stretch for blocks through their towns and cities, Mr. Trump is engaged in a full-throated assault on the integrity of that essential democratic process. nyti.ms/356M8M8
The enormity and variety of Mr.Trump’s misdeeds can feel overwhelming. Repetition has dulled the sense of outrage, and the accumulation of new outrages leaves little time to dwell on the particulars. nyti.ms/356M8M8
This is an election about the country’s future, and what path its citizens wish to choose. A special section of the Sunday Review reminds readers why Mr. Trump is unfit to lead the nation. nyti.ms/356M8M8

Two of the nation’s oldest scientific publications — Scientific American and the New England Journal of Medicine — have waded into the morass of electoral politics for the first time in their more-than-100-year histories, notes @JInterlandi nyti.ms/2IAyAkd
Donald Trump "has lied, again and again, about the severity of threats the country is now facing — be they from climate change or the pandemic — even as reams of evidence make those threats plain," writes Jeneen Interlandi nyti.ms/2IAyAkd
Donald Trump is "a president who muzzles credible scientists and amplifies charlatans. One who suggested on live television that UV light and bleach injections might cure people of the coronavirus." nyti.ms/2IAyAkd
