On the Thursday broadcast of his nationally-syndicated radio program, Glenn Beck trashed Sarah Palin for her joint appearance with Donald Trump at yesterday's anti-Iran deal protest on Capitol Hill.
"Yeah, I'm going to say it," Beck prepared his audience. "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.
"Why do I say that about Sarah Palin? How can you say that about Sarah Palin? Because 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.
I don't know what she cares for. I don't know. She doesn't know what I stand for. We had a falling out long ago because she listened to people who were lying to her about me. Fine. Don't care. I don't care," Beck said.

Glenn was on CNN last night with Don Lemon. He appeared disheveled and very depressed. Years ago he said he was bipolar. I believe it has been serious. On Lemon’s show, he sure seemed to be on the lowest spiral. I felt sorry for him, actually. He can’t be healthy and he was barely making any sense.
Right now he seems to be on another planet. Very hopeless and dispirited. Discussing death agenda, abortion, Planned Parenthood atrocities, cop killing, black killing, ISIS. Just overwhelmed by death events becoming regular events, no end in sight.
Don asked him about Sarah’s rally line where she accused Obama of not calling off the “dogs”, and did Glenn think she meant blacks. It seemed he didn’t hear the audio clip very well, but he said he didn’t know what she was saying, and that he didn’t understand anything she was saying at the rally. I assumed he meant her nails-on-chalk-board voice at the rally, screeching inaudibly across our TV, but maybe he meant they are politically clashing, I just don’t know.
Anyway, he is in very bad shape. I haven’t seen him for years, so I was pretty shocked.
Beck has been dead to me for at least 4 years, so I feel vindicated every time he steps in it.
My impression of Sarah Palin is just the opposite. From her inept interviews on NBC & ABC in 2008 election cycle, she has improved substantially. She is now more in-tune with the issues affecting middle-class, and is more eloquent on expressing herself. IOW she has grown in her role as a national political figure.
It was not what Palin said about Trump which upset Beck. It was the mere act of appearing together on stage with Trump! Beck and Medved & Rick Wilson are 3 the stooges who absolutely hate Trump.
You having fun yet?
The only common thread in 2008 between Palin & FioRino:

He has come to believe there is no political solution for the problems we have. Frustration sucks, and he is starting to take it out on all those that refuse to see it is way. Sad really because he is right on a lot of issues like the Caliphate, it is just that the politicians make everything political.
I agree. I’ve thought for some time he’s headed for a mental breakdown.
Well, that ties the three of us together. SP, CF, and me, since I also voted for John McCain. Wasn’t because of John McCain or Carly Fiorino though.
(Forgot why I asked you in the first place. Carry on.)
Just trying to avoid discussions on Palin...they always conclude the same way. ...
Do you know a good, reasonably-price Acme Mind-reading Guess-O-Meter repair person?
I feel the same way. Politics of course must rest upon a moral foundation; once that has been damaged, the problem has gone beyond politics. That is where we are now. Politics, separate from a moral and spiritual reawakening, can't save us.
I think this is what Beck sees. But he isn't the only one, most of us also see that. You know Cruz and Palin see it, he of all people should know that.
Nobody is perfect, I don't expect perfection. I like people who fight. I guess that even includes Beck, too, on his good days. I came to admire him at Fox, he seemed to be the only one doing any real reporting. He was one of a very few prepared to fight. It bothers me now to hear him apologizing for the remarkable work he did there.
I admire the fact that he is building his own network after getting 86'd from Fox.
I don't understand his stance on gayism, though, and I don't understand his attack on Palin. Maybe like you say, the frustration or the pressure is getting to him. Who knows what you go through when you build a network from zero.
Glenn just needs a drink folks,
then another.
Next, Glenn will say that we need more Muslim immigrants.
He gets Zero respect here anymore kind of sad. I think I know what he is trying to do but something is just not coming together for him. He was clearly enraged at the politicos after the DC appearance yesterday. He has been for Cruz from the get go but gets no reds here for that, kind of odd huh.
