The wingnut welfare circuit has a job for everyone, apparently; now we learn that one of the first people to be canned from Team Trump for sucking at his job and being an ass to everyone he came in contact with has landed a new gig with, of course, the nation's silliest pro-Trump television empire.
Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBGI) is pleased to announce that Boris Epshteyn, an accomplished commentator and strategist, has joined the company as chief political analyst and will provide analysis and insight on major political stories.
You may not remember Boris Epshteyn, a somewhat doughy nondescript angry white guy in a Team Trump sea of somewhat doughy nondescript angry white guys, but you probably remember the reason he was fired from his White House position: As the guy in charge of dispatching Trump surrogates to the various news networks, he was such an unbelievable asshole that the networks were fed up working with him. From accusations to off-camera racism to ridiculous threats to withhold Trump spokesbeasts from networks that didn't cater to him properly, it was a gigantic and hilarious wreck.
Epshteyn, who landed a spot in the Trump campaign due to being one of Qusay Trump's college buds, will now be working at one of the conservative networks that he was tasked with Not Sucking At, where as chief political analyst he will be in charge of telling viewers why Trump is not, in fact, a dog's breakfast but a super-genius whose irradiation of the western coast in the North Korean war was all part of the Paul Ryan plan to grow super-intelligent vegetables on the Las Vegas strip.
There's literally nothing you can do that will boot you off the conservative pundit gravy train, apparently, but it's going to be a pleasure knowing the tools at Sinclair Broadcasting have to work with this unbelievable tool on a daily basis.
