Tom Friedman on Trump: ‘If You’re Not Afraid You’re Not Paying Attention’

‘I find it deeply disturbing in the face of all of this aberrant behavior’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT.

FRIEDMAN: "We have a president who’s a disturbed person. This kind of tweeting, this kind of overthrowing or throwing overboard all these cabinet secretaries at once, this is not normal behavior. If this man were running a Fortune 500 company, the board of directors would have thrown him out long ago. The board of directors in this case is the Republican Party and I find it deeply disturbing in the face of all of this aberrant behavior and truly destabilizing behavior, as we can see lately in the markets, that you don’t hear a peep out of the Republican Party and there’s nothing that unnerves me more. When you have a president who is attacking companies, attacking media organizations, he's applauding a media organization that put its anchors out and local stations across the country in what could only be described as a hostage video. These are deeply disturbing trends. If you’re not afraid, you’re not paying attention.”
