Smerconish deeply troubled by threat of Trump's Honorary Lehigh Degree getting rescinded!

He just gave a stunningly idiotic commentary on this burning issue
which was so perfect in its imbecility that I could not turn away.
It was like listening to a commentary from a human potato.
Smerconish is a very very special case of determined stupidity.
I wanted to tell somebody that. Please resume your
regularly scheduled Saturday.

He glows from being "hated by both sides."
He is a human cinderblock.

That we are sick and tired of his faux even-handedness. He’s a fundamentally flawed mealy mouthed sanctimonious asshole.

Did I mention that I’m not fond of him?

"honorary degree" got rescinded! Deemed Unworthy. Who in their right mind wants to be associated with that hot pile of crazy?

He and the Kardashians get lots of screen time. The tv execs probably feel safe with him.

Boils down to "let's be consistently stupid" or in other words "stupidity got us into this mess, stupidity can get us out of it".

or heard from him.

One though popped into my head reading your description: Did Smersh get honorary degrees that could now be rescinded given his attempts to 'play both sides' - and thus at times rationalize some of the far right? Sounds like on some level his criticism is perhaps personal.

Greetings! ... I think you're right, I think it's personal. Perhaps he received an Honorary Joni Mitchell Award, for always being on Both Sides Now.

I'd advise him to get used to it.

I see a lot of that happening in the future.

He will man the barricades against the rescinsion of any and every honorary trump degree even if he is the only one left, because he is Both Sides Man!
