Keith Olbermann to Trump on Comey firing: ‘To hell with you, you m-f traitor’

Olbermann rant Trump
Keith Olbermann goes off on yet another unhinged and uninformed rant.

While melting down over news that Donald Trump fired James Comey from his position as FBI director, GQ hatemonger Keith Olbermann fired off a profanity-laced tweet calling the president a “m-f traitor.”  The original tweet, however, did not censor the profanity.  And it was written in all caps, indicating Olbermann’s mental state at the time he typed it.

But it turns out that Olbermann was one of the many leftists who demanded Comey be fired just last year:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

But there’s more.  Olbermann also floated the conspiracy theory that Comey’s firing had something to do with Russia and alleged it was part of a cover-up:

And if you didn’t see it the first time he posted it, he posted it again… and again… and again.

Olbermann isn’t the only leftist to melt down over the news, as the Daily Caller reported:

The news media hit the panic button Tuesday night after President Trump fired FBI Director James Comey.

Media coverage Tuesday night portrayed Trump as a third-world dictator, and even suggested that the president had triggered a constitutional crisis.

“This is the kind of thing that goes on in non-democracies, that when there is an investigation that reaches near the president of the United States, or the leader of a non-democracy, they fire the people who are in charge of the investigation,” CNN’s Jeffrey Toobin claimed, going on to compare Trump to Richard Nixon.

Peter Hasson added:

CNN’s Brian Stelter described Toobin’s comments as “sounding the alarm” in his media newsletter Tuesday night.

McClatchy DC’s coverage included the headline, “Donald Trump takes a dictator’s stand against inquiry.”

“Just how far will this president go as investigations into his campaign and its alleged ties to Russia intensify, and perhaps tighten around his inner circle, if not around Trump himself?” asked the article, which read like an editorial but was classified as a news article.

And the meltdown will no doubt continue…
