Katie Couric cheers on Trump's impeachment, says GOP lawmakers need to be 'deprogrammed'

Katie Couric appears to have gone far beyond her days as a straight news journalist and taken a sharp turn to the left.

On Friday night, the 64-year-old former co-anchor of NBC's "Today" show and later anchor of the "CBS Evening News" openly expressed disdain for President Trump and the Republican Party during an appearance on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher."

During the show's panel discussion segment, host Bill Maher kicked off a conversation on the GOP lawmakers who overwhelmingly backed the president in Wednesday's second impeachment vote.

Couric, who is set to guest host on "Jeopardy!," had no problem putting on her partisan cap.

"It is so shocking. ... Not only are they not conceding, Bill, but their thoughts -- that there might have been some collusion among members of Congress, some are refusing to go through magnetometers ... to check for weapons, they're not wearing masks during this siege," Couric began.

"I mean, it's really bizarre, isn't it, when you think about how AWOL so many of these members of Congress have gotten. But I also think some of them are believing the garbage that they are being fed 24/7 on the internet, by their constituents, and they bought into this big lie. And the question is how are we going to really almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of Trump."

Who cares what Katie Couric thinks? She’s irrelevant.

Couric had a considerable part in creating, or accelerating, the American caste war. Her ambush-interview of Sara Palin left a great deal of bitterness. The general treatment of Sara Palin, even after the election of 2008, was disgusting and unprecedented in US history.

She was a defeated candidate, who could have expected to return to her former life, as had always been the case. But the “system” had to destroy her - for what reason? In the end their malicious acts, against a true representative of the American common people, pretty much defined the sides in the caste war we have now.

And then there was the treatment of the Tea Party. It was like watching a delegation of innocent hobbits approach the gates of Mordor.

GOP politicians are going to deprogram themselves right out of office because the base voters are already sick of them. I detest the GOP more every day watching them fluff their leftist masters.

The GOP sits and takes it as long as their checks and perks keep coming in. And they certainly don’t defend us from all the smears and blacklisting going on.

“Katie Couric appears to have gone far beyond her days as a straight news journalist”

When has she ever been a straight news journalist? She always was a liberal-left ideologue.
