Keith Olbermann called for the Supreme Court to be dissolved and took aim at the court’s Democratic-appointed justices, after a unanimous ruling on Monday kept former President Trump on the presidential primary ballot.

“The Supreme Court has betrayed democracy. Its members including Jackson, Kagan and Sotomayor have proved themselves inept at reading comprehension,” he said, referring to Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor.

Keith Olbermann called for the Supreme Court to be dissolved and took aim at the court’s Democratic-appointed justices, after a unanimous ruling on Monday kept former President Trump on the presidential primary ballot.

“The Supreme Court has betrayed democracy. Its members including Jackson, Kagan and Sotomayor have proved themselves inept at reading comprehension,” he said, referring to Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor.

The Supreme Court unanimously ruled Monday that Colorado cannot disqualify former President Trump from the ballot under the 14th Amendment’s insurrection ban, giving Trump a monumental legal victory on the eve of Super Tuesday, when he is poised to close in on clinching the Republican nomination.

Voters and advocacy groups across the country had filed dozens of challenges to Trump’s ballot eligibility, claiming his actions surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack necessitated his disqualification.

Olbermann feels Stephen A galloping up behind him, trying to take the lead in being the most obnoxious political hack sports journalist ESPN ever had.

Yeah Keith, because everyone knows Blacks and Women are
dumb. /s Even his own party appointees?

LMAO

I think they did a courageous job on this. I am not a fan
of the Leftist Justices, but when they do something right,
I try to commend them for it.

I doubt these people relished backing Trump on this, but
they did think he was being railroaded in violation of
the U. S. Constitution. So good for them.

This may trigger Sotomayor to resign so Joe can replace her with a 45 year old liberal.

What’s that Lincoln quote?

Here it is, describes Keith perfectly:

“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”

Olbermann used to be relevant when he was a local sports reporter in L.A.
That was at least thirty years ago. He rose quickly to the level of his own incompetence when he started to comment on politics. Now he’s just a lunatic.

There were at least 5 Republican state SOS’s that were ready to remove Biden from the ballot if the court allowed Colorado to ban Trump.

Olbermann (aside from being a douchebag and a simpleton) is too stupid to realize what problems this would have started.

I predict an illegal alien will one day rob and sodomize Keith Olberwoman. /spit

Ol’ Keith should stick to what he knows ... babbling about adult men who play with balls in public.

Keith lost his marbles some time ago.

But he is entertaining.

I can hardly wait for Rachel Maddow’s reaction. Should be epic!

If I didn’t feel that badly if Olbermann had a stroke in the middle of one of his diatribes, would that make me a bad person?

I think that primarily the leftist justices didn’t want to risk having Biden removed from the ballot in every red state (and to be generous, perhaps they had a small degree of concern for the country due to the chaos that would ensue if states could remove candidates from federal elections). But regardless of their motivation, all’s well that ends well.

. . . inept by definition, Olby.

I want to see what a melted Olberman looks like. Another thread said he had a meltdown over the SCOTUS ruling.

Keith...buddy...pal...you're a has-been sports anchor.

Nobody...and I do mean nobody...cares what you think regarding politics.

You're washed up, Keith...

Little Keith knows ineptitude, and proves it with this statement.
