Keith Olberman, host of GQ’s online program ‘The Resistance’, announced Monday that he is “retiring from political commentary in all media venues.”
Olberman announced his retirement during what is presumed to be his last episode of “The Resistance.”
Olbermann said he is now “confident” President Trump’s presidency would end soon, which makes this the “correct moment” to exit from making any further political commentary.
“I am confident now even more so than I have been throughout the last year that this nightmare presidency of Donald John Trump will end prematurely and end soon, and I am thus also confident that this is the correct moment to end this series of commentaries,” Olbermann said.
Olbermann then added that Trump will either be removed from office or forced to resign by his own party sometime in the next 13 months.
The former MSNBC host assured viewers that he is in good health and not being fired. “No illness. No scandal. No firing. Just I’ve said what I’ve had to say,” Olbermann said.
“It was as obvious as I made it seem. I give my work everything I can, so it’s not like I can dial it back.”
“I am retiring from political commentary in all media venues,” he concluded. “Thank you for all the kind words and all the support. Have fun storming the castle. My work here is done. Matter of fact, so is Trump’s.”
