Howard Stern clarified on Monday that he does not hate Donald Trump. He just hates anyone who votes for Donald Trump.
"This whole idea of you like me, you are good, and if you don't, you are bad … I've been the victim of this," said Stern when responding to Trump saying he "hates Taylor Swift" over the weekend on Truth Social.
"I don't hate Trump. I hate the people who vote for him. I think they are stupid. I do. I have no respect for them."
Stern added that if half of his viewers disagree with his opinion about Trump voters, they should stop listening to his radio show: "I'm at the end of my career, so fuck you and listen to another station if you don't like my views [on Trump]."
Stern is right that Trump's post about Taylor Swift made him look small. Trump is not running against Swift. He's running against Kamala Harris. And trying to start a feud with the most popular pop star in the country is hardly wise, on the surface.
That said, we ought to be amused by Stern's criticism of Trump for "hating" people who disagree with him and then Stern saying he "hates" anyone who disagrees with him about Trump.
TDS patients are often oblivious to their own hypocrisy. Stern is just one of the many examples.
Granted, Stern would prefer we refer to him as "woke." He explained last November:
"By the way, I kind of take that as a compliment, that I’m woke. I’ll tell you how I feel about it. To me, the opposite of woke, is being asleep. And if woke means I can’t get behind Trump, which is what I think it means, or that I support people who want to be transgender, or I’m for the vaccine, dude, call me woke as you fucking want. I am a woke motherfucker, and I love it."
Howard Stern Trump
Later in the segment, a caller claimed Trump uses the same strategy of communication regarding immigrants as Adolf Hitler did with the Jews during the Holocaust. Stern said he "couldn't agree more."
"It is the same playbook. We have seen it before in history." Stern responded to comparisons between Trump and Hitler.
"Hitler was perceived as a clown in Germany [like Trump in the US]. He was one of these buffoonish characters. Then he won an election. And that was the end of Germany."
Got that?
If Trump wins, the end of America is near.
Speaking of "hateful," Howard Stern comparing Trump to Hitler the day after the second assassination attempt on Trump is just that. The wannabe assassin has pages of social media posts that spread similar anti-Trump propaganda.
The "Trump is Hitler" crowd incessantly warns that the former president is a threat to democracy. However, two assassination attempts later, it's abundantly clear they and their rhetoric are the actual threat to American democracy.
Anyway, if you vote for Trump, Howard Stern will "hate" you.
“Stern is way past his expiration date.”
No kidding. I’ve always thought he was a crude, lazy, uneducated, misogynistic, ugly, opportunistic slob with bad things to say. My opinion of him hasn’t changed.
I don’t know how I will ever get to sleep tonight.
I don’t hate Howard Stern. I also don’t hate rats and cockroaches.
I view them all as vermin, beneath contempt.
Christine Todd Whitman named a Rest Stop in NJ after Stern.
But he’s always loved the Clintons.
Howard Stern is a man who has gone a long way on no talent.
Stern knows that the people who love Trump are also more than likely to hate him.
He is not as stupid as everyone thinks. I personally don’t care for the guy and the garbage he’s created, but I seriously believes he knows who he is and doesn’t care. He’s used it to his advantage.
This will drive more people TO Trump than against him.
He did the same thing for G Gordon Liddy. After a show he called him aside and told him he was great on the radio and he should do his own show. Liddy had quite a following in radio after that.
Stern had one show where he “refused” to air a commercial for GGLiddy, while actually devoting his entire show to talking about the new show. It probably single-handedly drew up liddy’s numbers.
Whatever happened to GGLiddy’s show?
Not surprised. A shock jock who spouts off garbage.
Trump was smart to say he hates Taylor Swift. He knocked her off her princess pedestal. Now people are allowed to dislike her because she’s a stupid, vacuous, left wing celebrity. I hate it when celebrities misuse their fame. Who are you? Not to mention that Taylor Swift has entered her fat Elvis phase. In a few years she’ll be wandering the streets like Delta Dawn looking for a dark haired man.
Well, that’s it. Howard Stern is right off my Christmas Card list. If I had a Fakebook account I’d unfriend him, too.
liked him when he first hit. After a while I grew tired of him. For the past 6 or 7 years he has declared himself against the right , and everyone in it.. I don’t care, and I don’t need to listen. My dem brothers still like him and listen all the time.
This has all gone too far. These nutcases are going to start a civil war. People simply do NOT have the mental capacity to understand the consequences of that.
I’ve always hated Stern. I even went with XM instead or Sirius so I wouldn’t have to listen to him or fund him in any way. I hated it when they merged, but I made sure his channels were deleted and I wasn’t paying for them.
He is, and always will be a turd.
President Trump owes Howard Stern a thank you. It’s a big endorsement for President Trump to have the vile and sniveling Howard Stern say he hates people who would support Trump.
Howard Stern, who caused Dana Plato to OD on drugs days after he trashed her on his radio show, has the nerve to go after Trump seriously
Never gave stern a thought. Why would I?
We don't care. I never had any respect for that sh*t monger anyway.
Dont skip over the secession part.
Stern hates me?
Two questions: 1) Who is Stern, and; 2) How can I go on iiving knowing this cipher hates me?
People need to stop putting all entertainers on a pedestal, period.
“Dance! Monkey! Dance!”
These creaky Leftnicks are crawling out of the woodwork. They think their 15 minutes under the limelight is going to boost their retirement funds. People like Howard Stern are irrelevant and have gone past their expiration date.
