Glenn Beck Endorses Donald Trump, Puts on MAGA Hat
Breitbart ^ | 18 May 2018 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 05/18/2018 2:17:18 PM PDT by conservative98

Glenn Beck, the staunch Never-Trump radio host and founder of The Blaze, announced on Friday that he is supporting President Donald Trump’s 2020 re-election bid.

TheBlaze ✔ @theblaze .@glennbeck has heard ENOUGH from the mainstream media. It's time to acknowledge everything @realDonaldTrump has done for America.

2:20 PM - May 18, 2018 2,192 1,409 people are talking about this

Beck said his decision to finally support the President came after watching the “dishonest and corrupt” media mischaracterized Trump’s comments, in which he described MS-13 gang members as “animals,” on Thursday.

“Media, if you can get me, Glenn Beck, to do this,” he said, “If you can drive me to the point to where I say, ‘You know what, I’ve had enough; I’ll vote for him in 2020’– you’re making a gigantic mistake.”

During this monologue, Beck put a red “Make America Great Again” hat on his head and announced the symbolic act to his radio listeners.

Beck added he believes Trump will re-take the White House in 2020 in a “landslide.”

Hard to believe he still has a radio show... I thought he faded away.

More nonsense!

The definitions do not mention or describes any style of hat. They give only general elements required to fall within the definition of hat. A baseball type cap falls within those definitions and is excluded by none of them.

How is a baseball type cap not "a covering for the head, especially one with a shaped crown and brim." ["google images BRIM"]

How is a baseball type cap not "a head covering which is worn for various reasons, including protection against weather conditions, ceremonial reasons such as university graduation, religious reasons, safety, or as a fashion accessory?"

How is a baseball type cap not "a shaped covering for the head worn for warmth, as a fashion item, or as part of a uniform?"

Kinda late...

Glenn has a following, and likely influenced thousands of voters, perhaps millions, to vote for somebody else.

“Welcome aboard!”

I agree with your sentiment. Better late than never.

It is troubling that there are so many on this forum who seem to carry grudges about campaigns that are long over with.

Glenn Beck did some amazing work before his stupid opposition to Trump.

I will be glad if Trump’s opponents all have a change of heart and get on board with making America great again. This includes conservative purists, RINOs, and even Democrats.

While this is highly unlikely, at least some will. And it’s not a good idea for Trump supporters to greet those returning to the fold by kicking them in their teeth.

Glad to hear it but I’ll never listen to him. His behavior toward DJT during the election was horrible. He may as well have been working for Hillary.

LOL, Glenn! The media has been mischaracterizing everything President Trump has said since he announced in 2015. And *nothing* else has changed.

There is something more going on here.

Sorry, but no. Levin speaks the truth, even when its uncomforting.

Levin’s an unhinged screecher all the time, and of late is making noises somewhat less hostile to Trump than during the election or in the first year of his Presidency. Wait until the next seeming crisis for Trump, then check and see where you find Levin. Back screeching never-Trumpisms. He cain’t help it, bless his heart.

He has consistently said that Trump is a much better president than he expected. He’s admitted he was wrong about Trump in at least two ways. He didn’t believe that Trump would move the Embassy or pick constitutionalist justices. (Glenn Beck was not the only one who was skeptical about that, as you may recall.)

He cited some of President Trump’s achievements and t/he craziness of the left that endorses MS-13 and Hamas. He’s also been a strong critic of the Mueller investigation, and the revelations that Obama spied on Trump (which we knew, but we now have solid evidence) was a factor in this also.

The mainstream media lying about Trump was the final straw. Glenn is, if nothing else, a seeker of truth — at least, as he sees it. And the continued distortion in the coverage offends Beck’s sense of truth.

That doesn’t mean that they agree on everything — nor do I agree with him on everything. You can criticize the president on some issues and still be a supporter. On the whole, his record has been good.

Yeah, how dare someone you hate decide to support the person you support? Now, how can you hate him? Crap!

You are lying about him. Pretty much every claim you’re making in your post is false.

What would you say to a network that could employ Laurie Dhue, Sara Carter, Dana Loesch, Buck Sexton, Ellison Barber, Allie Stuckey, Lawrence Jones, Amy Holmes, and Tomi Lahren, among others? Pretty good, right?

All of them have worked for The Blaze.

I think so too. He said he was sick of the way the media treats Trump and the “animal” tactic pushed him over the edge. He said Trump has accomplished everything he said he would during the campaign and blamed some Republicans for not supporting him.
