On Tuesday, talk radio host Glenn Beck accused the Tea Party supporters of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump of being racists.
While he questioned whether Trump’s supporters are genuine Tea Partiers, Beck said of them, “If you were a Tea Party person, then you were lying. You were lying. It was about Barack Obama being black. It was about him being a Democrat.” Although he later identified fellow talk show host Sean Hannity as a Tea Party supporter who thinks Trump is “a great guy,” Beck said that he simply disagrees with Hannity about Trump.
Beck’s comments came as part of a discussion of Trump’s rally in Texas yesterday before a sold-out crowd of 20,000. Beck stated, “The media’s making this look like [Trump’s supporters are] Tea Party people. I don’t think these are Tea Party people who are following him. Some of them may be, but I think these — I mean, you can’t — if you were a Tea Party person, then you were lying. You were lying. It was about Barack Obama being black. It was about him being a Democrat, because this guy is offering you many of the same things, as shallow as the same way. If you said to me that it bothered you about his past, you said to me, ‘Hey, what about his relationship with Jeremiah Wright? What about what he’s done here, here, and here?’ You’re not bothered by this guy, and it’s exactly the same thing.”

Two steps liberal/one step back is a sure fire way to run out of steps. I don’t doubt his mental issues are a big part of that but it’s like beer. They only magnifies who and what you really are inside when no one’s watching.
Even if his issues are under medical control, the man he is behind their mask is what he is.
Beck said the same thing about Newt supporters in 2012.
Of course then it was because Beck supported Romney.
I am looking for a Trump-Cruz ticket , which I will then wholeheartedly support
Cough hack and pattooie to the three of em.
Now their saviour Arnold is getting promoted to Trumps old gig
Talk about a Celebrity Apprentice
I liked him at first on his FNC show when he was exposing the commies working for Obama. Then he just got too weird.
“Beck’s a jackass and his comments are idiotic, but it is utterly illogical to believe you support tea party principles and Big Government Trump simultaneously.”
Big government??? Do you remember the conservative champion George W Bush? Do you remember the conservative, I-will-stop-Obama campaigns last year? Did you hear Rush talk about how Trump has no finger prints on any of these issues? Which Republican has campaigned for big government? None. Do we have big government? Yes. Have the conservatives who campaigned against big government opposed big government? No. Why all the disdainful sneering at Trump supporters?
ok
Beck’s fans owe an apology? If so, I agree.
Beck said the same thing about Newt supporters last election when Beck supported Romney.
I agree.
And I believe he either has financial problems now or knows they are coming. Stir in all things LDS (and pressures there to conform) and Beck is living a perfect storm.
His “anger” towards Trump is anger transferred from him NOT meeting his own expectations with his own media empire. I hope Beck can find inner peace and medical help.
Not sure but I do know the last couple of months I have been moving the dial over to Coast2Coast when Glen comes on here at 9pm
It’s rather amazing that El Rushbo has held onto his audience for almost 30 years.
May of the others have faded. The one’s who have faded don’t realize how fed up we are ‘out here’.
Rush, Levin and some of the others do.
Yea they do. Had you been on the receiving end of their rabid Beck defense you’d know why. And there were a LOT of freepers on the receiving end.
Oh, I see...Beck has no problem kicking our teeth in if we don’t do as he likes but not Hannity, no sir. Beck is a weak, petty and pathetic man. He picks on the weaker but bows to the stronger— disgusting.
This ends my support of Glenn Beck.
Beck = a whining, sniveling, estrogenically charged version of Howard Beale, i.e., he’s a f—kin’ loser.
It’s time to shun Beck’s Sponsors
I get XM radio and noticed on channel 125 (Patriot Radio) that they dropped the news by “the Blaze Radio network” at the top of the hour and are using Townhall.com for the news. Anyone know why?
He has become a suppurating Pilonidal Cyst!
I apologize for my pre teddy bear support. Feel better?
