CNN contributor Bob Costas shared a brutal analysis of former President Donald Trump in a rant on the network on Saturday.
Costas was asked to share his thoughts on Trump while appearing on Smerconish. His subsequent rant was not limited to just the former president, but also his fans.
“He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history. He‘s only become more disgraceful since 2016, and since 2020 he has a bubbling cauldron of loathsome traits,” Costas said of Trump. “You have to be in the throes of some sort of toxic delusion in a toxic cult to believe that Donald Trump has ever been, in any sense, emotionally, psychologically, intellectually, or ethically fit to be president of the United States. But his supporters are locked in on that.”
The political analysis is a unique glimpse into the Emmy-winning sportscaster, who is currently contracted with TBS as a play-by-play baseball announcer, and HBO Sports with a quarterly interview series. Despite his strong opinion of Trump, he acknowledged that President Joe Biden does not have a “cult” following. Costas seemed discouraging of Biden running a second time, as Biden had signaled he would be a one-term president during his first campaign.
“And at best, he can squeak by Trump. That‘s at best,” Costas said of Biden. “Or, he could lose to Trump and subject the nation to four more years of this kind of ongoing insanity. Or if he squeaked by, it’s very likely that he cannot complete his second term. He’ll be 86 at the end of it.”
Trump is fresh off from winning the South Carolina Republican Primary on Saturday. Biden also swept the Democratic Primary weeks ago, to a smaller voter turnout.
Bob is just another MSM whore.
The Left’s Propaganda machine working at full speed
Little man trying to remain relevant
His news sources, controlled by the Left, are telling everyone that Trump is Satan...so that's what Costas believes.
The opinion of this political prostitute is very important to us! Thank you for bringing it to our attention!
Some say that Boob is a kiddie diddler.
Not to mention Pelosi, Schiff, Biden, Harris, Edward Kennedy, Wilson, etc.
stick with Bigfoot.
Check his basement for missing children.
Bob has decades of video out there does he really want to go there I recall him asking some female athlete since departed about when she lost her virginity.
Look in the mirror Bob before making such a sweeping allegation about DJT.
“He’s giving a complete pass to Hitler, Goebbels, Stalin, Pol Pot, Benedict Arnold, Tokyo Rose, Vidkun Quisling, Yisrael Bar, Roger Hollis, Stanley Wilson, et al?”
None of those people are a present threat to his tender feelings, nor to his wealth, influence, or worldview. Trump is, to all of those things.
And frankly, they work.
I ran Bob Costas’ vile remarks through my Jonny Quest decoder ring. Here’s what came out:
“Please, CNN. Give me a full-time gig. I’ll say literally anything for the right amount of money.”
Bob who? You mean that gasbag sportscaster that believes his own press clippings? That Bob?
His opinions are worth less than worm spit.
85 million people are not wrong abut this, Mr costas
Why would anyone care what a sports announcer thinks about politics? It irritates me to no end to see all these low IQ sports people invading the political punditry space.
Their ideas and opinions are all stupid and uninformed. They spent their lives talking about children’s games.
I thought it was W? No wait... wasn’t it Karl Rove? No wait... Ronald Reagan...
