Glenn Beck having absolute tantrum on the radio

Posted on 09/10/2015 7:00:14 AM PDT by SoCalTransplant

Glenn Beck is having an absolute hissy on the radio right now. In epic meltdown, he is literally rambling and mad at the world. The In the course of the first 45 minutes in the program we've learned that:

- Sarah Palin is a clown - Trump supporters are no different than Obama supporters in 2008/2012 -Don Lemon on the other hand, is an honest guy trying to do the right thing -Ted Cruz is in Donald Trump's hip pocket

I honestly thought at one point he was going to scream "STOP LIKING SOMEONE I DON'T LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!". It seems ironic to me that a guy who blathers on about how we need to have a dialogue with people we disagree with apparently doesn't extend that courtesy to anyone who doesn't immediately "snap to" and agree that Donald Trump is the Antichrist. It will be interesting to see if he becomes more and more unhinged if the Trump wave continues.

Is anyone else listening to this and if so, what are your thoughts?

If we could know for sure, I’d agree. But the problem is that I dont know how you tell the difference between those that are Christian and those that might be sleeper terrorists. Keep in mind that if in the service of Islam it is perfectly acceptable for a muzzie to lie to an infidel.

Listening and it sounds like he got his feelings hurt because of speech being interrupted. That has really twisted him up

Yeah, the "rant" is really about his speech being cut off by music because he went over his time. An ego thing. No longer important enough to be allowed to finish his speech. He got the audio version of the hook to quit hogging the stage.

I agree, his tantrum is mostly over hurt feelings and he didn’t get the star treatment that he thinks he deserves.

Haven’t listened since he balked on his reveal that would take down everything....Global political structure or something. That was it. He literally makes me paranoid and sick to my stomach. I do think he is right about some things and reccomends great books but the negative out weighs the positives.

Glenn Beck having a absolute hissy fit and epic meltdown and literally rambling and mad at the world.

That is on his resume. Sometimes he sound normal then ding ding dingy.

I didn’t say he was wrong, just remarked on events as I remember them.

Yea I heard it, since he is offering nothing of value I pretty much ignore his diatribes there is some value to his show, but there are just so many commercials for a good laxative that one can acquire information from.

Now he’s going to have Jindal on his show to bash Trump. This is soooooo Jr. High.

Ever since I first heard him on the radio my first and continuing impression of the guy is a used car salesman.

I could definitely see a used car salesman pitching a fit in order to get attention and close the sale.

"It was on the 5:00 hour and he was fired by FNS. He then went to CNN."

1) Whether or not he was 'fired' by Fox has not been conclusively established.

(2) His first cable news network show was on CNN Headline News. He moved to Fox News after leaving CNN.

I've generally been a Beck supporter for many years, including being a charter subscriber to Blaze TV. I think he has done a lot to bring our attention to dangerous gov't overreach. He was the first one I heard YEARS AGO warning that Obama was working hard at making Congress irrelevant. That sure turned out to be accurate. And I think his recent book, It IS About Islam, is a very important book that needs to be widely read.

That stated, I have wavered significantly in the past 2 or 3 years at some of the 'new directios' he's taken. I have recently declined to renew my Blaze TV subscription as a result.

I watched the Trump/Cruz/Rally yesterday, and was annoyed that he blatantly ignored his time allotment and indignantly asserted that he was 'an invited speaker' and should be allowed more time. This morning, on the radio show, he complained about that and went on to re-read the speech restoring the approximately 30% that he had to omit at yesterday's rally. This was a sad demonstration of inflated, self-importance, IMO.

There is something wrong with Beck. He just can’t seem to get it together. Way too much of a drama queen.

Beck has been unhinged for a few years now every since he had to leave Fox News and go back on his radio show and internet channel. This is what years of alchohol and crack abuse will do to you.

“The Beast?” Uh no. Donald Trump is not the Beast. Barack Obama maybe. The Pope (and I’m Catholic) maybe.

Pat and Stu need to bail on Mahatma Glenndi & start their own show. They can be hilarious just the two of them since they don’t do weepy heavy stuff.

Usually when Beck is off they are too, like he takes them to his personal ashram to receive transcendental wisdom.

That was when I canceled my subscription to GBTV/theblaze. I was a charter member, signing up before it even officially went on-air after he left Fox.

Back when he was on Fox, he did a lot of great work, which he continued for awhile. Then he started preaching too much and I started looking at him through a different viewpoint. It became too much about turning to God and stopping the “fight” because fighting could never win. I believe his alliance/reliance on the Huntsman family is to blame for at least part of his troubles.

I believe he lost so many subscribers after his teddy bear stunt at the border that TheBlaze is in danger of failure. If he fails, it’s his own fault.

“P.S.: Crying like that can be a sign of drug use.”

He’s a dry drunk. A pal of mine explains that to me as someone who isn’t drinking now but who still hasn’t given up the self-centeredness and self-pitying that alkies have.

He says that he knows for a fact that Beck has been ‘fired’ by four different Alcoholics Anonymous mentors for being uncooperative.

The AA program requires personality change. And since Beck is convinced that he’s a genius and/or a prophet he doesn’t need humility or any of that other stuff that AA is selling. So he’s still the same immature crybaby that he was when he started, complete with grandiose fantasies and a touch of narcissism. My bet is that he will start his own religion before he’s done.
