Glenn Beck: Michelle Obama gave 'most effective political speech' since Reagan

[RandySF]

First lady Michelle Obama's speech this week slamming Donald Trump's comments about women was "the most effective political speech since Ronald Reagan," according to right-wing commentator Glenn Beck.

On his TV program Friday, Beck said his viewers should watch Obama's speech to see its "devastating effects. And I don't mean on Donald Trump. I mean on the conservative movement."

"We had been talking about, 'there is no war on women.' You just handed them a war on women," Beck said.

"And if you listen to her words carefully, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, they are coopting women and it will work."

1. Looks like old Glen can see the writing on the wall.

His internet media site is collapsing, he's no longer welcome at Fox, and he's been too crazy for radio (which says a lot). Time to follow the pendulum to the left. If he pulls it off he can get back on CNN. Although, MSNBC will probably be the one to win out.

2. Great post

I agree. He's trying to save himself all signs show to him going over the edge.

[Glamrock]

5. And it'll work.

He'll somehow be the rational, sage, conservative pundit that will be on the Sunday shows, MSNBC, CNN. Well. Him and Hugh Hewitt can suck it, in the parlance of my 13 year old times.

[underpants]

10. Yeah the mainstream acceptance of Hewitt is ridiculous

He's from a nuttier operation than Beck created.

19. Chuck Todd already welcomes him with open

arms. He loves the guy. Did you see the interview he did with him on MTP? Todd did everything he could to make the guy mainstream and legitimize him. It's just a matter of time before he is a regular on Morning Joe.


This goes to show you how a lot of the crazy right wing talk is just to make
money off of crazy people. Once it no longer works, they magically change sides.

Didn't he once say on FOX News that Obama hates white people? And now he loves Michelle Obama and is going to vote for HRC?


What a fraud. He is just looking for a gullible audience to make money.

4. Well Glen she wouldn't have needed to give that speech if you and other like you

hadn't been hate mongering your entire career. The Republican Party today is the end result of decades of the utterly vile right wing talk radio where facts be damned just make up whatever shit you want to dumb down reason and make your enemies look bad.

Glenn Beck, you made this shit sandwhich so don't get up from the table now. Open wide and choke it down.

11. Thread win!

That last paragraph - a classic!

[Jarqui]

6. I cannot think of a single reason why I should care about what Glenn Beck thinks nt

[NWCorona]

13. I don't particularly like Beck but he did have one of the best black history month programs

I've seen on TV.

[Jarqui]

14. Like Trump though, there's something wrong with him

I'm no psychiatrist but he's messed up mentally somehow.

Some of his positions flirt with insanity.

I didn't see his black history month programs - because I wouldn't watch anything he has to do with. If he did something good there, then that's great. But I'll never take him seriously.

[NWCorona]

15. I totally agree with you that he's off! I didn't go looking for it

But I was talking shit about him and a buddy told me to watch it.

[Jarqui]

16. A word to the wise is sufficient. I'm going to try to check it out ..

As long as I don't have to watch much of him, I could handle it.

[NWCorona]

17. Yup a little bit of him goes a long way lol!

[oberliner]

7. He is a huckster and fraud

Who hawks a variety of scam products, gold-related and otherwise.

[guillaumeb]

8. And of course he had to frame it as "co-opting" rather than telling the truth.

Beck, Hannity, and Limbaugh are even more responsible than Trump for turning the GOP into the stew of nativism, racism, and misogyny that it currently is.

[grossproffit]

9. Trump is Beck's come to Jesus moment. Sometimes you need to see the hypocrisy in others, before you

see it in yourself.

[Cha]

12. If beck can get some of his flock

to vote for Hillary.. the more the merrier.

[Tikki]

18. Then write in Michelle's name for President....

That may be just ahead of the curve.

20. 'They are co-opting women' he says, without realizing how insultingly sexist that is

Oh, the irony. What a putz.
