The mask has finally slipped. New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman just admitted what Patriots have known all along: the liberal media would rather see America lose than watch President Trump succeed.
During a Saturday appearance on CNN's "Smerconish," Friedman made the jaw-dropping confession that while he "wanted to see a defeated Iran," he was deeply "concerned" that any victory over the Iranian regime would benefit President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu politically.
Think about that for a moment, folks. This establishment media figure is literally admitting he'd prefer Iran – a terrorist-sponsoring regime that chants "Death to America" – to maintain its power rather than see our Commander-in-Chief get credit for protecting American interests.
America Last Mentality EXPOSED
Friedman's shocking admission perfectly encapsulates the "America Last" mentality that has infected the legacy media and Democrat establishment. These people are so consumed with hatred for Trump that they'll root against American foreign policy victories if it means denying him political success.
"I really don't want to see Netanyahu, Trump 'politically strengthened' by victory over Iran," Friedman confessed, revealing the twisted priorities of the liberal elite.
"This is exactly the kind of sick thinking that kept us weak under Biden for four years. Thank God we have real leadership back in the White House."
While President Trump works tirelessly to restore American strength on the world stage and support our democratic allies like Israel, media elites like Friedman are more worried about political optics than national security.
The Deep State Media's True Colors
This isn't just about one columnist's bad take – it's a window into how the entire establishment thinks. They spent four years undermining Trump's foreign policy successes, downplaying the Abraham Accords, and giving Iran's terrorist regime the benefit of the doubt under Biden.
Now that Trump is back in office with a mandate to restore American leadership, they're terrified that his inevitable victories will expose their previous failures.
Patriots, this is why we can never trust the mainstream media to put America first. When push comes to shove, their hatred for Trump trumps their love of country. Thankfully, the American people saw through their lies in 2024 and restored real leadership to the White House.
