Ann Coulter: Talking Head Twit of the Year Contest
Breitbart.com ^ | 24 Feb 2016 | Ann Coulter

Posted on 02/24/2016 7:13:31 PM PST by Rockitz

The cluelessness of the GOP pundit class is infuriating, but may ultimately be our salvation. Nothing they say about anything is ever right, even accidentally.

This is making the TV news shows resemble Monty Python’s “Upperclass Twit of the Year” contest. The twits don’t notice the starting gun, run into one another, fall down, run themselves over with their own cars and, then, the remaining contestants all shoot themselves in the head.

Anyone who talks about politics on TV isn’t going to win them all, but when your horse takes a dump in every single race, week after week, why should we listen to you next time?

If you tuned into ABC’S “This Week” the morning after Trump’s tremendous victory in South Carolina, you’d find George Stephanopoulos promising analysis from a “powerhouse roundtable,” by which I assume he was referring to the table itself.

He then turned to the sort of clueless morons who have gotten everything wrong for the past seven months so they could tell viewers “what’s next.”

I’ve picked these two “Republican strategists” at random for reasons of efficiency, but it could have been any of the Karl Rove-Matthew Dowd-Steve Hayes-Hugh Hewitt-George Will-Rich Lowry dream team.

Prepare to be dazzled by the analysis!

So, has the horse face finally jumped off of Mitt Romney badwagon and kicked Krispy Kreme off to the curb? Trump here she goes!

Of course she’s right. Most all the MSM got it wrong, as did those in D.C. In fact those in D.C. run their elections like they do government. Total fail.

I gave up watching these TV talkers years ago. They just don’t get it.

I have to take some credit for steering Ann to how important the immigration issue was to conservatives. I got the opportunity to speak to her at a couple LA events back in 2005 and asked her about illegal immigration each time.

“Republican strategist”

She is right. They have become a laughing stock. Rove is turning himself into a pretzel in trying to explain his election forecasts. Hehehehe

I have many disagreements with Romney. However, he would have been much, much better than Obama.

Second thought, even Carter would have been better than Obama.

I think they have an agenda. Just look at who they keep rolling out to trash Trump.

She looks good there. Ann was looking a little Skeletor for a while.

Great article.

“If I were a career counselor, I’d tell my students to become “Republican strategists.” You can be terrible at what you do - and the phone will never stop ringing! In no other profession, even fields that require a fair amount of speculation like oil wildcatting or weather forecasting, can you be so consistently wrong and never lose work.”

Ann makes such a good point that none of us should ever watch any punditry show again. Just DON'T. Turn in for a debate or an interview with a real person, but eschew every second that strategists and talking heads are on. We need to not reward these tools of the uniparty establishment.

It would be as if, after discovering America, Christopher Columbus reported back to the King and Queen of Spain, but the booker for Ferdinand and Isabella decided that, instead of Columbus, she’d get the guy who never actually set sail for the New World because he was afraid he’d fall off the edge of the Earth into a fiery pit.

Ann showing how the one pundit who got everything right about this R primary season, the editor at Breitbart, has never been seen on TV since September, while all the anti-Trump idiots are on constantly and they have been wrong every time their mouths were open.
