If you have time and want to see what Keith Olbermann is up to on his Twitter account, don’t. You all have better things to do, but knowing the man, who admitted he was so angry at the Supreme Court that he was pissing through his eyes, my curiosity got the better of me. It was like entering the Seventh Circle of Hell.
Olbermann, starved of attention, reached full froth in early March when the Supreme Court rejected Colorado’s arguments for removing Donald Trump from the state's 2024 primary ballot. It had nothing to do with January 6—the Court said states do not have the power to enforce Section III of the Constitution. That is under the purview of Congress. The reaction from the rest of the left could be summarized with these tweets.
WARNING: STRONG, EXPLICIT LANGUAGE
The Supreme Court has betrayed democracy. Its members including Jackson, Kagan and Sotomayor have proved themselves inept at reading comprehension. And collectively the "court" has shown itself to be corrupt and illegitimate.

It must be dissolved.
Fuck you, Sonia Sotomayor.

Fuck you, Elena Kagan.
Fuck you, Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Liberal women are fucking useless.

The Supreme Court must be dissolved, which was Olbermann’s unhinged take. Hasan Piker, a left-wing commentator, said that “liberal women are f**king useless.” And then, there was the typical pack-the-court nonsense. All three reactions were totally unhinged.
So does Keith Olbermann https://t.co/xHeD0wbAce

Since then, Olbermann has been playing doctor, claiming that Trump is suffering from “fluent aphasia,” a video of himself that he’s reposted numerous times. Olbermann will likely never work on a major network again, so he’s been relegated to this—screaming into the void. But the man gets hate clicks. The point of peeking in every now and then on these folks is to see the progress of how one whose mind has been broken by Trump deals with his political resurgence in 2024.

What a show we got here:
HOW SICK IS TRUMP? HE’S EVEN MISPRONOUNCED “PUTIN.” This is serious, degrading illness and the media ignores it

WHO OWNS TRUMP? He’s had to get a bond from Chubb to pay Jean Carroll. Is there a co-signer? Is he American?

NOT JUST A GREAT STATE OF THE UNION. ALSO ONE THAT KICKED TRUMP’S ASS

The first 7 minutes erased any doubt @POTUS is up to ALL the tasks. The last 61 exceeded all expectations, raised a Biden ‘right direction’ metric 17%

TRUMP APPEARS TO HAVE “FLUENT APHASIA”
— Keith Olbermann⌚️ (@KeithOlbermann) March 6, 2024
It’s brain trauma. Victims form what sound like sentences but are just ‘word salad.’ They can’t fully use speech nor understand it.
Trump has been doing it NON-STOP since Saturday.
