Radio personality Howard Stern is fed up with America’s obsession with Queen Elizabeth II.
Back from summer vacation, the shock jock lashed out at the “annoying” coverage of the monarch’s recent death on an episode of The Howard Stern Show this week.“
Enough with the Queen!” he told co-host Robin Quivers (per Page Six). “I mean, it’s America, we don’t have a Queen.”
The Queen’s death has dominated the planet’s front pages since she died last Thursday at age 96. “The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon,” the royal family tweeted.
Stern, 68, acknowledged that Elizabeth II was a “nice lady” but said he wants the media to get back to covering American politics.
“She did her duty to her country, I get it, I get it, I get it but we gotta get back to Trump, where those papers are that they found at Mar-A-Lago.”
Stern went on to offer several theories on why he thinks Trump allegedly held on to more than 100 classified documents at his Florida estate.
“I think he was trying to prove to the Russians, like, ‘I’m really in control here. I’ve got top-secret papers.’ Meanwhile, he’s showing them to Russians,” he said, according Fox News. “Just like, to prove that he was president in a way he doesn’t even believe it. That’s the most safe explanation.”
Stern then offered up a “horrible” second theory.
“This is a guy who badly wants to do business with Russia and Saudi Arabia. Imagine if he says to them, ‘Look man, give me a couple billion dollars, and I’ll show ya where France keeps their nuclear weapons, and you guys can see all this s— if you do business with me.”
He also speculated that Trump was motivated to keep the secret docs for monetary gain.
Trump was saying, “‘Hey, you guys wanna buy this from me? I can sell it to you, Russia, for like $50 billion – you’ll know everyone’s nuclear secrets.'” But Stern offered a less nefarious explanation.
“You know, that’s just the way he rolls. I don’t even think he has any idea what’s in those documents. He just wants them.”
His dad died a few weeks ago. Howard should have listened to his dad when he told him to “Shut up, Sit Down!”
My approach is that the Queen’s death is an important event but other events many not related to President Trump are very important.
I don’t like obsession with one subject be it the Queen, President Trump or Ukraine for that matter.
The news becomes a brainwashing session when that happens.
Ditto
Trump used to be on his show all the time.
When Donald became the nominee, he stopped going on Stern's show.
Stern never got over that.
That was Don Imus. They both kind of look the same.
“Isn’t he a perv?”
That’s what I remember. Of course, I thought he was dead of AIDS.
I never listened to him, but I knew people who did. He sounded like a filthy, greasy, stringy, drug-using pervert who simply wanted to be outrageous to sell his brand.
Wasn’t the term “Shock Jock” coined for him?
Yeah...I think I have the right guy. I heard people say “Oh, he’s just a libertarian!”
Riiiiiiight...
FO stern
There is no better country I know of who can put on such a grand ceremony as the Brits can.
Stern is a filthy old pervert. But, the more President Trump makes the news, the more popular he becomes.
“convinced he is part of the group that visited Epstein’s house in Newyork”
Or visited New Mexico, or Florida, or Little St. James.
What’s that you say “Miles August”?
He was good earlier in his career but now he is what he used to despise. Hes not even aware of it. He still thinks he’s a rebel but in reality he’s just a washed up gaslighting liberal who thinks he knows more than than everyone else. He’s like the Robert Reich of radio.
He suffers from a cranial-rectal inversion.
Go to bed Granny Stern
I thought leftists were so concerned about bullies. Why was it okay for Howard Stern to get away with bullying Dana Plano? This bastard took advantage of a sick woman and it ended up with her death. Freaking pucky bastard!
Ditto that.
And that’s why cable news channels are so useless to me.
Lol, so true! 👍
Still though, the Captain Janks call during the OJ car chase will always be a classic.....”And I see OJ, and he look scared!”
