Olbermann Calls for General Strike; Trump Arrest

June 29th, 2017 11:24 AM

Keith Olbermann has recently made public his grievances with media bias on Trump, but don’t get too excited because his nutty argument is that the liberal press is not going far enough in exposing “the worst set of crimes in American history.”

Olbermann began his regular GQ web show, on June 27, in the way you would expect a wildly discredited left-wing mouthpiece would, by asking why “this quote, "President," unquote, has not yet been removed and arrested.” After calling for the removal of the democratically elected head of state because of unproven allegations, Olbermann saw it fit to call Trump a “treasonous megalomaniac,” seemingly oblivious to the irony.

 

 

Reaching his full liberal stride, Olbermann, at this point almost unable to contain his anger, proclaimed:

The nation, which should be in the streets holding a general strike fighting to restore the rule of law that is dissolving in front of its eyes is instead utterly divided or distracted or both. Republican legislators wholly owned by corporations are dismantling the already porous health care net in order to fund tax breaks for the wealthiest and greediest bastards among us.

Sensing that there were still a few people left in the country that he had not yet insulted, Olbermann went on to say this:

The President's sycophantic base is happy because, while a few of them may have noticed this society is still hitting them in the head, they look with perverse joy at the reality that this society is now hitting women and minorities harder.

 

 

Olbermann also went after the Democrats in this tirade, speaking specifically on their need not to ease up on what he calls "the Russia thing." When you think he’s finally let what at this point had become uncontrollable anger loose on the media, he doubled back on the presidency:

Media is obsessed not with the lies of a president who is gifted only at lying, and news conferences by his lying spokespeople that contain no news, no truth, no reality, no morality, which is spun by cretinous deceivers who make the farcical propaganda of the infamous Iraqi Baghdad Bob looked like the revealed word.

Finally, speaking of the media, he attacked them on how they focus too much on ratings, but then made a sharp left turn saying how they should instead concentrate on “how the lack of truths from the White House press room will impact whether their children live in freedom or slavery!
