Bob Costas, former sportscaster for NBC, appeared on CNN’s “Smerconish” early Saturday bashing President Trump and his millions of supporters.
He said that Trump supporters were a “toxic cult” and claimed that Trump himself was the “most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history.”
He also expressed disapproval of Joe Biden running for reelection only for the concern that Trump would win the election against him for being weak.
Fox News reported:
Former NBC Sports broadcaster Bob Costas unloaded on former President Trump during a recent TV appearance, calling him the “most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history.”
The journalist appeared on CNN’s “Smerconish” on Saturday morning, where he laid into Trump and his supporters, which he also called a “toxic cult.”
Additionally, he handed President Biden a stiff rebuke for running for office again, claiming that Biden is risking plunging the country into “insanity” under Trump by not stepping aside and letting someone stronger run against the 45th president.
“You come at this from a position of not wanting to see Trump get elected. You should state that at the outset. True?” Michael Smerconish asked Costas.
“Yes, absolutely. He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history. He’s only become more disgraceful since 2016 and since 2020. He’s a bubbling cauldron of loathsome traits. You have to be in the throws of some sort of toxic delusion in a toxic cult to believe that Donald Trump has ever been in any sense emotionally, psychologically, intellectually or ethically fit to be President of the United States,” Costas replied.

Costas had made comments about Biden and how he could be perceived if he stepped aside from running for a second term.
“He had a chance to be seen as a statesman and a patriot. Now his legacy is likely to be that of a man whose hubris prevented him from seizing the moment in an appropriate way, and at best, he can squeak by Trump – that’s at best,” Fox News reported.
Costas made reference to Biden being weak and implied another candidate should run against Trump.
He continued hurling insults at President Trump by calling him a “monster.”
“Trump is a monster. You shouldn‘t send this guy out there at this point in his life to try and slay the dragon,” Fox News reported.
This isn’t surprising behavior on the part of the left considering President Trump is leading in a recent Harris X poll 9 points over Biden.
Says the most disgraceful figure in sports broadcasting history.
“Yes, absolutely. He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history. He’s only become more disgraceful since 2016 and since 2020. He’s a bubbling cauldron of loathsome traits. “
They never say why they’ve arrived at these characterizations. They only have a lot of subjective badmouthing, no objective FACTS.

Bob Costas is Katie Couric. They are the same people. They even look alike. I would say they are the same person except I do believe I have seen them both simultaneously in the same screen shot. Perhaps it was TV trickery. I think they are one in the same. Katie seems to be more manly however.
Exactly!
More Trump cultist labels. Talking points for the bots.
Makes you question motivations of some people.
BTTT
What are the odds that Costa’s name is on the Epstein Island guest list?

This is nothing new for Costa. His idiocy goes way back.
So did the little snot, Robert Quinlan Costas, ever play an organized sport? I don’t think so. He dropped out of college to become a sports broadcaster with no experience.
For my part, I always thought Costas was a low-IQ, smarmy douchebag. Of course, that is true of most media types.
While I don’t watch NFL football any longer (almost a decade)....if I do watch a baseball or NBA game...I’ll admit that I tend to mute an awful lot.
Just as an aside, how does a jock-sniffer who probably couldn’t hit a baseball off of a tee become NBC’s go-to guy for baseball announcing?
After all these years, I still haven’t heard anyone say why they hate Donald Trump.They just like to tell everyone how much they hate him “because”.
“ I always thought Costas was a low-IQ, smarmy douchebag.”
With a really…really bad hairpiece.
I dimly remember Costas. I don’t remember him as political, but he’s clearly out of the closet now. I have to wonder if all sportscasters are like him. The only sports I watch now is college football, and I’m thinking of disengaging.
Maybe he and Kampala have a lot in common............
Wow! That clip is SUPER creepy ... I was shocked at a different compilation of Biden clips that was linked last night — he really IS a racist, and a very hateful, arrogant, entitled douche — yet I’ve never before seen most of the comments in these clips — they were buried somehow.
