Keith Olbermann Is Still Sitting At His Lil’ Ikea Table, Yelling About Trump

It’s been a couple of weeks since Keith Olbermann debuted his new show podcast, The Resistance. Let’s check in and see how he’s doing, shall we? It’s either that or pick the wings off flies.

Okay, Keith. On your mark… get set… RANT!!!

Gee, how come this guy can’t hang onto a TV gig?

I’d encourage Keith to pace himself for the next four years, but it’s more fun this way. Here he is earlier today, losing his mind over Trump’s dumb “flag-burning” tweet:

Go get ‘im, Keith! And please ignore the fact that back in 2005, Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) sponsored a bill to make burning an American flag a criminal offense. The important difference is that she didn’t tweet about it. That would be insane, because Twitter didn’t even exist yet.

Maybe you doubt Keith’s mental-health bona fides, Dear Reader. Maybe you think he’s projecting. Maybe you imagine that he’s the crazy one. Well, would a crazy person allow himself to be photographed like this?

I think we all know the answer to that one.

I suppose it’s possible that Donald Trump is going to put you in a gulag for burning a flag. Or for being gay, or for wanting an abortion, or for whatever reason you think Trump is going to oppress you. Who knows? Could be.

Or, another possibility — and I realize this is way out there, folks, but just bear with me a sec — another possibility is that Donald Trump just says whatever comes off the top of his head at any given moment, and it doesn’t necessarily mean anything.

Does he really look like a guy with a plan?

Now, will it be good for America to have a president who says pretty much any dumb thing he feels like saying, whenever he sees something on TV that he doesn’t like? It certainly didn’t keep him from getting elected. We’ll just have to see how it works out for him once he moves into the White House. If nothing else, it’ll be entertaining to watch people like Keith Olbermann driving themselves crazy calling Trump insane.

But Trump’s not going to throw you in jail for burning your little flags. Go ahead, dummies. Light ’em up. You’re not hurting anything but your own cause.

Just make sure you don’t burn the flag while Olby is still wrapped in it. I can’t even imagine what that bonfire would smell like…

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
