Glenn is a conniving manipulator who finally realizes there is no future for a self anointed ‘conservative leader’ that continues to oppose President Trump. It’s simply an intellectually untenable position for a self-professed conservative to continue to be NeverTrump in light of all that Trump has accomplished.
But, I say Glenn is a conniver because he’s trying to publicly change his position without admitting he was ever wrong. Notice his verbal slight of hand? His rationale for supporting Trump is that the MSM pushed him to it. Did you hear that? Yep. He’s not supporting Trump because he finally realizes that he was wrong about him, but because he’s disgusted with how the MSM has twisted Trump’s words. There is no admission by Beck that he was ever wrong about Trump.
So now Glenn has jumped on the right side of history while skipping over that mea culpa stuff. Over time he will publicly support Trump more and more now, as it makes good business sense to do so, and he’s hoping no one will notice that he never admitted he was wrong in the first place. So, he was right to be NeverTrump and now he’s right to be a Trump supporter. In other words, he’s always right. What else would you expect from a guy who views himself as some sort of modern day prophet?
Excellent analysis.
