Will Chris stand by these comments? Will he explain on tonight’s show that he used words that could be taken out of context? Inquiring minds want to know…

I’ve seen your show on occasion. It wasn’t worth my time either.

I think he will blame this on the virus.We’ll see. On radio not national TV.

This should be interesting…

Though the following wish could be a future problem, a two hour AC360 works for me.

Fever or maybe post fever damage speaking? Is he watching his brother and maybe thinking of getting into politics? Enquiring, none fever damaged, minds want to know!

Guess he’s trying a new treatment for the virus – truth serum!

Is this an effect of ego-blindness?

I stopped watching his show for the reasons he gave. nobody tells the truth. Just like nobody gets out alive. these hyenas think they will live forever. like Donald Trump, who suffers a bad case of the god syndrome. Donnie gonna find out. lol the truth he calls hoaxes sooner rather than later. he IS elderly.

Well, fever-induced or not, i sense that this is how he honestly feels, and for that, i respect him for “unloading.” I also sense that this was more a message to CNN and other journalists than it was for us viewers. Enough is enough. There’s too much at stake to perpetuate the shit show. Hearing how he feels, he’s starting to sound a lot like Kieth Olbermann, and that’s the truth. It’s just that truth isn’t palatable to people with money.

I think you are on to something here, get yourself out of the way and you can do wonders. Photographers, painters, musicians, and other types of artists strive for this state of mind. Living during a pandemic seems to be making this easier.

I’ll respectfully disagree about the ‘asking for it’ part.

What bothers me is that even though his life is slowly running a retrospective, his comfort zone is to strangely blame both parties for one party’s current attempt in creating a junta.

Well, yes Chris. I can see that. Krazy world, aint it?
