A roundup of editorials Thursday includes a look at how Democrats do not have to answer for antifa, how there is no answer for the Trump administration and how Hillary is exactly right about Bernie Sanders.

Here are some opinions from the left.

1. The Ivanka Trump Guarantee 

From The New York Times: If you are looking for a silver lining in this presidency, don’t bother.

2. GOP Has a White Supremacy Problem. Dems Don’t Have an Antifa Problem.

From The Daily Beast: Don’t lump Antifa in with the Democratic Party. On the other hand, the GOP owns white supremacists.

3. Hillary Clinton is right about Bernie Sanders

From CNN: Bernie Sanders led the Democrats to the left then helped to elect Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton.
