Kieth Olbermann Is About To Become Donald Trump’s Worst Nightmare

He’s baaaaaaaaaaack……


Liberal icon and bane of Bill O’Reilly Keith Olbermann is returning to the political battlefield and his goal is to take Donald Trump down!

From a mock up of the Oval Office, Olbermann laughingly lists several of the outrageous things Trump has said and done over the past several months and then he gets serious:

But look, we’re past Labor Day and he still hasn’t fled for the Cayman Islands yet and those folks who support him are still supporting him and he could still wind up in a place that looks just like this.

Not if I can help it.

It’s almost enough to make an atheist like me believe in a higher power but it’s finally happening! Liberal icon and bane of Bill O’Reilly Keith Olbermann is returning to the political battlefield and his goal is to take Donald Trump down!

According to Politico, Olbermann will be doing an online biweekly show for GQ. Olbermann almost single-handedly turned MSNBC into the “liberal” cable new network and is directly responsible for giving us the national treasure that is Rachel Maddow so to say liberals are giddy over his return is an understatement. Olbermann, however, is a bit of a prick to work with so here’s hoping he’s toned his ego down and gets back to doing the important work of pushing back against right wing propaganda.

Keith Olbermann will host digital show for GQ magazine

Former MSNBC and ESPN host Keith Olbermann is getting another show, but this one isn't on TV.

Olbermann will host a bi-weekly series for GQ magazine called "The Closer with Keith Olbermann." The news was first reported in POLITICO's Morning Media newsletter.

Olbermann will "be providing commentary on the election, with the flexibility to delve into other timely issues when relevant,” a GQ spokesperson told POLITICO's Joe Pompeo. Olbermann will also be joining GQ as a "special correspondent."

The move to GQ not only brings Olbermann in front of the camera for the first time in more than a year, it also marks a return to politics for the veteran host, whose commentary on MSNBC made him a household name. Olbermann left MSNBC for Current TV, and subsequently re-joined his original TV home ESPN, which he left (for a second time) last summer.

Earlier this year, Olbermann went on ABC's "The View" and announced that he was "coming out of retirement" and wanted to do TV once more.
