Friedman: Trump’s Squandering the Trust of the American People

‘This administration, all the people around the president, including former General Kelly, now head of Homeland Security, are being asked to burn up their credibility, their trust with the American people by defending the indefensible’

RUSH EXCERPT:
FRIEDMAN: "What they say, Wolf, is something quite tragic. This administration, all the people around the president, including former General Kelly, now head of Homeland Security, are being asked to burn up their credibility, their trust with the American people by defending the indefensible. The king has clothes when he doesn’t. It seems clear that the president woke up on Saturday morning without consulting anybody, read an article on Breitbart or some other far-right website and took that as evidence and basically in a tweet attacking his predecessor making the most vile charge that he attacked in in an enterprise he equated to Watergate. We have an entire administration around Trump being asked to basically burn up their credibility by somehow dressing this up as having a basis in fact. Maybe it does, maybe it will come up, but we haven’t seen a shred of evidence from either the head of the FBI, the former director of National Intelligence, or anybody else."
