Glenn Beck is so far off my radar, as a crazy right-wing FOX fundamentalist, it’s hard to think of anyone who I would expect less from, or think about less, except to thank whatever gods may be that he’s faded into obscurity since his glory days in the Bush years.
But the two most amazing, spot-on responses to Trump’s triumph I’ve seen so far have been Elizabeth Warren’s interview on Rachel Maddow last night, and Glenn Beck’s op-ed in the New York Times this morning. Listen to both, will you, and bend your mind around the impossible fact that they both say much the same thing, humbly and eloquently, about how exactly Trump’s victory challenges us, what we all got wrong, and what we have to do to get it right going forward.
Listen.
