I’ve Discovered a Liking for Piers Morgan, Now That He’s in the UK
Some years ago, I knew Piers Morgan as an obnoxious British journalist on American television. I rarely watch TV, so I mostly was aware of him when he outraged conservatives by his theatrical posturing over one issue or another, such as Newtown.
However, as a faithful reader of the Daily Mail, I’ve enjoyed a number of his columns since he returned to the UK, defending his old friend President Donald Trump, such as this one. The president gave Mr. Morgan an interview on Air Force One before departing the UK for Germany yesterday that many of you will find interesting. Here’s the interview, and I’ve also included a video from morning talk in the UK arguing over the president’s visit, in which Mr. Morgan argues that the protests against the American president should not be so puerile and outraged, when visitors like Erdogan of Turkey or the crown prince of Saudi Arabia receive little to none.
Cheers!

Thanks. Interesting and my reaction. Who’d have thought it; well President Trump did. Let’s see what he writes after he’s brutalized for being positive and when President Trump isn’t paying attention.
Outside of gun control, I find him frequently reasonable and occasionally insightful.
I never thought I’d live long enough to find one thing I could like about Piers Morgan.
Thanks, Mama Toad!
That was fantastic. It also sheds a bit of light on how disturbing it is or isn’t when my British wife (also, my only wife…) gets upset at me.
Perhaps Piers is one of those rare people whose likability is inversely proportional to their proximity. Distance makes the heart grow fonder. ;-)
Mr. Morgan’s column today: “Whisper it but despite his terrible week, Trump may be absolutely RIGHT to pursue this new bromance with Putin.” Heh.

There’s the knucklehead I’ve come to know and loathe.
Good on Piers! You know you’ve won the argument when your opposition finishes with, “I am literally a communist!”
What a moral idiot.
Today’s: “Trevor Noah’s disgusting attack on Aboriginal women confirms him to be a racist, sexist pig — and he can’t even blame Donald Trump for it”
Heh again…
Trevor Noah may be a bad comedian, but he’s not stupid. He knows apologizing to the Left is like chum in a shark tank. They will eat you alive.
Youtube just tossed this incredibly funny video up to me… It’s from February of this year, and features Tucker Carlson interviewing Piers Morgan about the time Omarosa told him they should have sex in order to boost show ratings, or, as Tucker calls it, Piers’ “MeToo” moment… So timely with the crazy interest in Omarosa by the media…
