I'm not entirely sure that Keith Olbermann had much of a mind to lose but, whatever he did have, I think we can safely say it's gone now. The election of Donald Trump has reduced the former television personality to a bitter, sputtering, rage-machine who appears determined to become the left-wing Alex Jones. He shakes, screams, and spits his way through conspiracy theories that - if he wasn't some sort of once-upon-a-time celebrity - he'd probably be scratching into the walls of his cell using only his fingernails.
Previously, Keith offered to lead America's anti-Trump resistance forces. Now, he's decided that we're at war with Russia. Or, more acurately, we've "lost a war with Russia without a battle." It seems that we are "no longer a sovereign nation, no longer a Democracy, we are no longer a free people." We're nothing but victims of a "so-far bloodless coup" against the United States and its rightful President, Hillary Clinton.
His rant, which he still appears to be filming in a closet in front of two large sheets of construction paper, appears below.
If you've been enjoying the left's post-election meltdown, you're going to love this. It's completely worthless as political commentary but, as unintentional comedy goes, it's absolutely top notch.
Sorry Keith, "Russians" didn't flip three states that haven't voted for a Republican since 1988. The candidacy of Hillary Clinton did that. If there was any "coup," it was staged by the DNC when the party rigged the primaries to destroy Bernie Sanders.
Still, we hope Olbermann keeps making his little YouTube clips.
They make us laugh, and comedy is a noble profession.
