On Tuesday, talk radio host Glenn Beck accused the Tea Party supporters of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump of being racists.
While he questioned whether Trump’s supporters are genuine Tea Partiers, Beck said of them, “If you were a Tea Party person, then you were lying. You were lying. It was about Barack Obama being black. It was about him being a Democrat.” Although he later identified fellow talk show host Sean Hannity as a Tea Party supporter who thinks Trump is “a great guy,” Beck said that he simply disagrees with Hannity about Trump.
Beck’s comments came as part of a discussion of Trump’s rally in Texas yesterday before a sold-out crowd of 20,000. Beck stated, “The media’s making this look like [Trump’s supporters are] Tea Party people. I don’t think these are Tea Party people who are following him. Some of them may be, but I think these — I mean, you can’t — if you were a Tea Party person, then you were lying. You were lying. It was about Barack Obama being black. It was about him being a Democrat, because this guy is offering you many of the same things, as shallow as the same way. If you said to me that it bothered you about his past, you said to me, ‘Hey, what about his relationship with Jeremiah Wright? What about what he’s done here, here, and here?’ You’re not bothered by this guy, and it’s exactly the same thing.”

Norm, there you are, being so Normy. I didn’t see that my post would follow yours! lol! There’s me, being so, well, you know.
Tell me about it. They were awful around here especially around the marathon bombing time frame.
Wow!
I guess Glenn has gone off the deep end like so many people said.
For how the term "racism," has been morphed into a tool for the suppression of heritage, note Reality Is Not A Grievance.
Anyone who wants to call defense of heritage, "racist," as a pejorative, is simply not on our side.
YES WE ARE!!!
We are The Trump Supporters and darn proud of it!!
Guess what, we don’t act like you, we don’t even listen to you, you want to know why? YOUR NUTS!!!!
The attacks on Trump are getting out of hand...needs to stop NOW!
He continued that Trump saying his name may be on the wall between the US and Mexico is “what a dictator says. I mean, remember, it was Leningrad, and then it was Stalingrad. That’s what dictators do. That’s what dictators do.
Beck says, You Can't Built That Wall!
GlenN, get off the Xanax, they ain’t working.
Try NORCAN.
Trump color doesn’t affect my opinion of him. He could be colored green with blue spots and I would still support him.
I thought he did not allow Trump's name to be spoken on his program. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I assume Pat & Stu are going along with him, too?
Beck can go and recycle his own poop.
He is a Mormon and a hammerhead and needs to fall in a hole.
If being right wing now means Im a racist, then fine Im a racist. I’d sooner DIE than become a left wing political correctness crapbag!
God is the only one that CAN help him because he obviously has no intention of helping himself fix his problems.
“He sounds like a few fellow freepers...”
He sounds like a commie.
He can’t handle pressure.
Really.
Working in radio for 30 years I know there is a lot of pressure. The bigger you get, the more pressure.
Deadlines, constant revisions of copy, strange hours and disrupted “normal” life all take their toll.
Some of the reasons I stayed relatively low level but still lasted a LONG time in Pittsburgh, always in top 5 stations.
News is a REAL killer. You have to be special to withstand the daily assaults not just from listeners but special interests.
In a Very BLUE demo I was doing news from a right wing perspective. Pressure? I ate it for breakfast then had seconds for lunch.
Knew the guy is for Open Borders. Glenn Beck slowly made it clear for years. He would never discuss certain issues as well that he didn’t want to expose. I sense he is both losing money and people are distancing themselves from him which is why he is melting down. He hates Trump because he wants Open Borders, doesn’t care about Obama’s being Illegally president and is in a pact with the GOP E since 2013.
He has finally gone around the bend.
“Stopped listening to him years ago. Too passe’.
Ditto, Medved.”
Hugh Hewitt also.
Beck/liberal - cage
