Time magazine columnist Joe Klein declared that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s voters “are a real threat to this country” on Tuesday’s broadcast of PBS’s “Charlie Rose Show.”

Klein said of Trump, “This is a guy who doesn’t know anything, except to say evil things about other people, and –.”

He added, “If you vote for Trump, it means you’re not paying attention. These are low-information voters. They are a real threat to this country. They’re a real threat to our standing in the world.”

Klein further stated of Trump’s supporters, “I think that their anger is self-indulgent, and I think that this really — it’s a disaster for the Republican Party. It’s a disaster for the country. Things aren’t so bad here. You know, it’s time that we put this thing into a little bit of perspective.”
