NY Daily News targets Christie over Trump support with KKK cover
A major New York newspaper critical of Donald Trump is turning its fire on New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie for endorsing Trump for president.
Saturday’s New York Daily News front page calls Christie “MAN WITH A KLAN,” displaying the governor alongside hooded Ku Klux Klan members.
Below the headline, the newspaper says: “Just days after ex-KKK leader urges haters to vote for Donald, Christie endorses him.”

{mosads}The newspaper has run a series of front pages critical of Trump’s candidacy and supporters.
Most recently, its Friday edition focused on former KKK grand wizard David Duke’s praise for Trump, writing: “Ex-KKK leader: Vote for Donald, he’s just like us!”
The Daily News lamented Trump’s win in New Hampshire earlier this month with a “DAWN OF THE BRAIN DEAD” headline.
Before that, the newspaper declared Trump a “DEAD CLOWN WALKING” after his loss in the Iowa caucuses.
