just posting this here for posterity:
NEW VIDEO: The last episode of #TheResistanceGQ. The good news: I’m finishing it because I think - especially after “Pocahontas” - Trump is unavoidably, inevitably, and in every possible path open to him, FINISHED pic.twitter.com/NzguN6uvL3— Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) November 27, 2017
the sad thing is that, as widely predicted by cynical view, everyone has almost COMPLETELY forgot about the (latest) pocahontas thing already.

the last 30 seconds of that video is so intensely weird

I like the "alone in my underground bunker" quality to his ResistanceGQ videos.

yes of course, america’s famously deep wellspring respect and reverence for native americans means that trump’s 78th use of the word ‘pocahantas’ would finally be one step too far

odd time to crank up a thread on this guy.

I saw Olbermann talk about baseball cards at a convention this summer, and it's interesting how he didn't come across in that context as a foaming delusional lunatic.

Oh wow I thought there was a slim chance that Olbermann was quitting because he'd gotten some inside dirt that was truly damning but in actuality he's just incredibly naïve and/or hasn't paid any attention whatsoever to how the world works now that the apocalypse is in full swing.

the "retirement" is super odd, to the extent that I wonder if it was precipitated by something else

I can’t believe this is a new thread

I read a recent-ish profile on him from this year, probably around when he was starting this show he just impulsively ended (fr it probably got cancelled bc nobody gives a fuck), anyway the story just made him out to be this total weirdo, there was some quote about him being "on the spectrum" and that explained his insanely rude behavior

aren't baseball card fanatics often delusional and foaming?
