Meet Xi’s Puppet, Mustachio! Tom Friedman Simps for the Chi-Coms to Get Trump … Again
NewsBusters ^ | 4/17/2025 | Joseph Vazquez

The New York Times’s mustachioed “China for a Day” propagandist Thomas Friedman is having a nervous breakdown because President Donald Trump isn’t a climate change nut like he is. And true-to-form, he’s simping for the Chi-Coms to get Trump… Again.

“I Have Never Been More Afraid for My Country’s Future,” read Friedman’s grossly embellished April 15 item that was plastered on A22 of his newspaper’s April 17 print edition. After bellyaching over the allegedly “[s]o much crazy [that] happens with the Trump administration every day,” Friedman then freaked over Trump’s April 8 decision “to sign an executive order to bolster coal mining.”

Oh my goodness! Wow! The horror! But what made his babbling even more nonsensical was that he tried to do some free PR for the communist Chinese government by legitimizing it as some budding climate crusader, despite it being the undisputed leader in CO2 emissions: “Wait, wait, you say, but isn’t China also still digging coal? Yes, it is, but with a long-term plan to phase it out and to use robots to do the dangerous and health-sapping work of miners." Just take a genocidal government’s word for it, right?

Friedmans bullshit book “The World Is Flat” was the Mein Kampf for corporate outsourcing. He should be deported to El Salvador.

Friedman’s wife is an heiress to a billion dollar fortune. He hates America and non-socialist Israel just out of spite.

Of course he’s a socialist. Socialism keeps the little people in ‘their place’, and allows the big important people to feel good about themselves that they provided crumbs to the masses. Marx was such a horrible person.

Nah, just deport Friedman to a state that has coal, like Wyoming or Kentucky. He’ll think he has gone beyond the pale of civilization.
