Glenn Beck Is ‘Embarrassed’ that He Ever Supported ‘Clown’ Sarah Palin
Mediaite ^ | September 10, 2015 | Matt Wilstein

Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin shared the stage at yesterday’s anti-Iran nuclear rally in Washington, D.C., but apparently the one-time allies no longer see eye to eye.

During his post-mortem radio broadcast about the event, Beck had this to say about Palin’s speech:

“I’m going to say it. I don’t care what Sarah Palin says any more. Sarah Palin has become a clown. I’m embarrassed that I was once for Sarah Palin. Honestly, I’m embarrassed… I don’t know who she is any more, I don’t know what she stands for. I saw a clip of her talking to Donald Trump. What the hell is that? I don’t even know who she is any more.”

Beck added that he and Palin “had a falling out because she listened to people who were lying to her about me.”

Later, Beck had similarly nasty things to say about Donald Trump, who co-headlined the event with Ted Cruz. “I’m telling you, dealing with Donald Trump is like dealing with a third grader. And I’m not dealing with a third grader anymore because the world is on fire,” the host said. “You want to come on the show, great. You don’t want to come on the show, great. I don’t really care… Enough of the third grade politics. Grow up, Donald Trump. Grow up.”

Didn’t he say a few years ago that he was giving up politics & concentrating on making movies? Thus, his move to TX and purchase of a movie studio.

This was after Imus’s wife didn’t cure him.

They all seem to have jumbled up what they do. They are basically drive time DJs. Moron Trivia and the like. They may be very good at that, I don’t know. I don’t care for that side of it. Although it can be amusing discovering just how ignorant people can be and still get by. Beck’s long suit was, as I said, ferreting out the corruption and slimy dark places that the creeps wanted hidden. Maybe the whole thing just got to be to big of a mess and he just could not do it anymore. He has actually said as much.

I will never forget the night he had Huntsman on an introduced him as a good friend. The guy looked like he was about scared to death. Maybe he was. Huntsman said straight up, “it is over here. I have moved to China (Hong Kong?).”. Wow. Maybe he is right. Maybe it is over here. Too bad we can’t all just wire a billion dollars to a bank in Hong Kong and quietly slip out. Most of us are kinda stuck here.

Hence, Trump. If someone, even a con artist, comes along saying he hears us, he will help us fight this battle what are we gonna do? Policy wonks who immediately erode whatever minimal spine they appeared to have grown are becoming a sickening parade of has beens. Sure, Jindal, Walker, even Carson are all much smarter than I am but the country is being rotted at an accelerating pace and none of the folks at the top are doing anything effective to stop it. Every damn one of these jerks, even Trump, has backed down on this invasion of illegals. If we can’t even slow the pace of this invasion what the hell are we going to do?

Charity is a wonderful thing and a Christian obligation. Destroying the foundation that provides the surplus from which one can be charitable is just damn stupid yet we are letting the pests tear at it with greater success every day. If we can’t do something effective soon it WILL be “over here”.

what I really love about Sara Palin is that her motives are simple. she wants to pass on to the next generation this country in a belter situation. her topics are sane spending and laws that are supportive of families. anyone that does not understand this does not understand what makes someone a conservative.

Well, that’s what happens when you believe you are a god per Mormon teachings.

This is old news. He posted an apology/clarification/explanation a short while ago, FWIW.

Glenn Beck is simply not a serious, thoughtful individual. His rise to "fame" was fueled by a career as a shock jock, a grade B version of Howard Stern. His failing Texas-based media company is located in what used to be a movie studio that produced the leftist "Born on the Fourth of July" directed by commie Oliver Stone. Being an intellectual lightweight, he's attracted to pop culture (as are other liberals). His production company is known as "Mercury Radio Arts", a nod to Orson Welles, who was certainly no Conservative.

His support for Governor Sarah Palin in the past was tepid at best. Now he's revealing his true leftism since, as I see it, anyone opposed to Governor Palin is a liberal. He fooled a few people (even some FReepers) with his phony Conservatism. His turnabout on Governor Palin is much like his repudiation of Christianity when he converted to a strange "religious" cult.

[ I like Glenn. I like Sarah. I have no idea why Glenn would say this. ]

He is just pissed off that Sarah seems to be throwing her weight BEHIND the DONALD.

Beck has been pretty anti-Donald Trump from the start.

He needs to just take the line that he doesn’t like Donald but will not use whether or not people like Trump as a litmus test on the other people.

I think on some level he thinks Trump is gonna betray conservatism as a candidate. and he may be right, but you don’t disown people like Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz because they seem to be behind Donald trump at the moment.

Because what will happen is he is not too careful is that he will burn bridges with all the wrong people to burn bridges with.

As for Governor Sarah Palin, your words would have led (and still should lead) to an instant ZOT at one time here on Free Republic (unabashedly proclaimed as "Palin Country").

Yup. SNIFF...

Ever thankful that Glenn did so very much to uncover progressivism.
The waterboarding of Stu by with Ensure was a hilarious highlight.
But, Glenn, I’m sorry to see that you seem to be too hamstrung to cheer and enjoy Trump’s irreverent pokes at the Washington cartel with all of its media gatekeepers.

Glen has such a hatred towards Donald Trump that he hates everyone else who even talks to Trump. His radio show on thursday was incoherent and Kooky!

No kidding. I really think Beck needs to get a second opinion. His psych meds just aren’t working for him.

Glen will be done pretty soon. He’s losing it extremely fast.
