New York Times columnist and author Thomas Friedman has never passed up a chance to trash the Republican Party and so during Sunday’s Meet the Press, he suggested that “maybe this party needs to crash and burn and this version of the Republican Party needs to die” in order for it to be reborn into a more competitive party against Democrats (translation: reshape their ideology).
Friedman’s comments were prompted by Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd wondering who would lead the Republican Party if the liberals dream scenario occurs on November 8 and the Democrats seize not only the White House but also the House and Senate.
