Local talk radio(Richmond Va) is losing their minds about UVA not going to the White House [View all]

WRVA 1140 AM. They have an FM station simulcast now too.

Flipping around this morning going to work the morning host mentioned it three times. He even pulled the sports update guy into it.
"I just don't get it"
"Does EVERYTHING have to be politicized now?"
"how about respect for the office?"

So I'm laughing at them holding onto this over the weekend.

When I first got in the car on the way home I heard that a Nazi scumbag in Charlottesville pleaded guilty to riot charges. Admitting that he wasn't there to protest but to insight violence.

Switch back over to the local drive time guy who devoted THE 5PM spot to it. This guy is Jewish (which comes into play later). He was beside himself. "Is it about his policies?" "What's he done to deserve this?" "if the White House calls you go". Then this - "Conservatives just have more class"
Callers call in to echo what they've heard probably all day.

"Okay at 5:30 we'll talk to retired FBI Special Agent ______ about the horrible shooting at Poway synagogue in San Diego and try to get some answers as to why this happened again"

A basketball team from CHARLOTTESVILLE respectfully declined. Trump met with the Baylor women's basketball team today but not the NATIONAL TEACHER OF THE YEAR from Richmond.

I didn't call in. No use. They are so purposely disconnected from reality.
