Keith Olbermann Apologizes to UK: Trump Is Not Of Sound Mind

“We are working to correct the problem as soon as possible.”

A somber Keith Olbermann apologized to Britain for Donald Trump’s insensitive comments attacking the competence of London’s mayor in the wake of Saturday’s attack on London Bridge. “Donald Trump is not of sound mind,” explained Olbermann in the latest offering of GQ’s “The Resistance.” “We are working to correct the problem as soon as possible.”

But it won’t be easy, he added. Unlike most jobs in the nation — and on Trump’s own former reality program “The Apprentice” — it’s extremely difficult to fire a president, no matter how incompetent, Olbermann said.

“Amid all that he creates — mass confusion, charges of corruption, hints at collusion — there is a stark reality. In almost any other job in this country, assuredly in any other private sector job ... Donald Trump, our national embarrassment, our international disgrace, would have been fired by now,” he said.

“His complete incompetence, his complete failure, and his complete inability to see his incompetence and his failure as anything except personal brilliance would get him fired everywhere from the boardroom at Microsoft to the deep fryer at McDonald’s.”
