In an editorial posted online Tuesday night, the newspaper called for Trump to end his campaign following comments the candidate made on Tuesday that some saw as a threat of violence toward his rival Hillary Clinton.
"Donald Trump must end his campaign for the White House in a reckoning with his own madness, while praying that nothing comes of his musing about an assassination of Hillary Clinton," the paper wrote.
Trump said at a campaign stop in North Carolina on Tuesday that "Hillary wants to abolish -- essentially abolish the Second Amendment. By the way, if she gets to pick, if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know."
The comment alarmed some, but was ultimately a breaking point for the Daily News.
"Trump can offer no apology sufficient to make up for insidiously making light of murder," the newspaper wrote. "Nor can he explain away or justify planting a notion that could spur a demented follower to kill a political rival, a President or Supreme Court justices."
The Daily News added that if Trump refuses to end his campaign, then those in the Republican Party must abandon him.
"In the event that Trump fails to abandon his candidacy — as he seems determined to — the Republican Party, including vice presidential nominee Mike Pence, must instead abandon Trump for toying with political bloodshed," the paper suggested.
