Sporting a dapper, Colonel Sanders look, Glenn Back is back on the air, and, he’s crazy again! Just like the old days, when he had a show on Fox.
Back in the “Glenn Beck Show” days, Obama was the anti-Christ, a racist, a man with a ‘deep seated hatred of white people.” And socialism was creeping everywhere, especially at the home of NBC! I will never forget his wacko diatribe about Diego Rivera’s mural painted for the building which would become the modern Rockefeller Center. It had images of Trotsky! It had images of Lenin! It made its way into the public subconscious. I was thinking, “what in the fucking fuck is he talking about?” The mural in question was destroyed by Nelson Rockefeller (the elder), before anyone could see it. The story of the mural can be seen in the movies, “Cradle Will Rock” and “Frida.”
But then, he went through a change. He saw Michelle Obama talking about Trump’s pussy grabbing words and he was mesmerized. He called the it "the most effective political speech I have heard since Ronald Reagan.” And the devil, Barrack Obama:
That was the old Beck, he insists: “I did a lot of freaking out about Barack Obama.” But, he said, “Obama made me a better man.” He regrets calling the President a racist and counts himself a Black Lives Matter supporter. “There are things unique to the African-American experience that I cannot relate to,” he said. “I had to listen to them.”
He appeared on Lawrence O’Donnell’s show. He was a never-Trumper. But, now, as Bob Roberts would say, the times they are a changing back. Apparently he should never say never. He now says the defeat of Trump in 2020 will mean “we are officially at the end of the country as we know it."
Speaking to Fox News’s Sean Hannity, the conservative radio host and author said he had discussed the threat posed by the changing face of the party for the past year, which is now being highlighted by the election of Congresswomen such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar, and the support of the Green New Deal.
“I said what was coming and the last few steps were that the radicals, the anarchists, the Islamists, the socialists would all gather together, they would not be working together, plotting together, but they would see the opportunity and they would all come together and work to destabilize Europe and America,” Beck said on Hannity, reported Mediate. “And that is exactly what is happening.”
I am sure the White House Squatter will endorse his return to the crazy fold. He might even see him as a fellow Very Stable Genius. So very stable.
