Horrible… Krauthammer Doubles Down: Compares Trump to Race-Hustler Sharpton & a Bar Drunk (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, April 26, 2011, 9:25 PM
Cranky elitist Charles Krauthammer doubled down tonight.
Rather than apologizing to Donald Trump the FOX News analyst compared Trump to Al Sharpton again tonight on The O’Reilly Factor. He also compared Trump to a drunk at a bar.
What elitist crap.

CK wants to keep up his streets creds up with his elitist peeps in D.C.
He probably gets on the phone with Obama everyday telling him he’s got his back.
Kraut: Don’t tell us little people what we want to hear!
SnowSoul commented:
What’s wrong with what Charles is saying? Trump is a salesman, he’ll say whatever is needed to close the deal. Why so many people are blindly accepting what he says in the face of so much evidence against him is just beyond words. I thought we were annoyed with the Obamabots for the EXACT SAME THING.
Midwestengr commented:
The same Charles who predicted that BHO wouldn’t get elected in ’08, but would in ’12. That Charles?

That is an excellent question! Just exactly why are so many accepting what Obama says in the face of evidence that he himself has presented to us?
Trump isn’t saying anything new you know. He is not saying one word that hasn’t been said every single day since at least 2008 about the ineligibility of Barak Obama for the office of President of the US by his own admission of dual citizenship.
bigkahuna commented:
Charlie is quickly showing he is an elitest republican. I used to like him but he has turned lately into a smug know it all that has no room for anyone who doesn’t tow the party line or something.. I am sick of GOP limpwristed numbnuts who act like anyone who isnt a Rhodes Scholar and a slick talker isnt worth Charlies valuable time.
Well I have news for Chuck…Give me 1 Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, Chris Christie, Michelle Bachman or Allen West and Hermain Cain to a trainload of Chuckie Krauthummers.
Rose commented:
Well, at least Krauthammer is outing himself. All kinds of people are getting the message.
From what I hear – Fox should be getting the message, soon, too.
JimmyT commented:
Charlie/Rove lost all their credibility in the last election cycle. They’re both Washington snobs.
Fuzzy commented:
Trump is not a conservative, and he’s not a good person. I can’t imagine how CK stating that, however crudely, is “elitist.” Trump is a complete fake, a poser, and a leftist.
wanumba commented:
Well, who asked the question today : “WHO decided TRUMP is “conservative?”
Same question: “WHO decided Krauthhammer is a “conservative?”
The Democrat media. The usual suspects. NOT actual Conservatives.
Sickofobama commented:

Kraut used to be a liberal. He still may be the way he is acting.
I would take almost anybody over Obama.
Not Hitler and not Stalin and not Mao but Trump yes.
ruready? commented:
If Trump is not conservative, how liberal does that make Krauthammer and Rove?
SnowSoul commented:
“And this is different from being a politician just exactly HOW?”
So, we continue attacking Obama on lies, but embrace those who do the exact same thing on our side? You may as well have a child being a political adviser if that’s what it comes down to.
“Trump isn’t saying anything new you know. He is not saying one word that hasn’t been said every single day since at least 2008 about the ineligibility of Barak Obama for the office of President of the US by his own admission of dual citizenship.”
No, he’s just giving higher profile to the right’s disgrace. Much like the democrats who had those idiots who thought 9/11 was an inside job, we now have a guy leading the charge on something with no evidence.
Don’t misunderstand me, I am as interested as anyone in seeing that birth certificate, but there’s a COLB floating around, additionally announcements. Furthermore, the more we are talking about this, the more we’re not talking about Obama’s policies that are killing America’s economy. Whenever Trump is on the air, he could shoot out what we conservatives know and many others know, or at least suspect, Obama’s policies are hurting the nation. He could use his high profile and understanding of business to state why this is all happening. But no. He spends it talking about a conspiracy that’ll go nowhere.
And yes, he is saying things that are new. There’s nothing concrete about the policies he’s touting. It’s all new.
czekmark commented:
Krauthammer is all over the place with his rhetoric and he most certainly does not represent the tea parties or any of the other hard core conservatives.
bobbymike commented:
$50k to Rahm Emmanuel, thousands of dollars to Chuck Schumer and many many more Democrats.
Trump agreed Bush should be impeached for Iraq, wanted Canadian style healthcare, said Nancy Pelosi is a bright sharp politician.
Come on people just because he is saying “interesting things” he is not a conservative.
bigkahuna commented:
I dont care right now if Donald Trump is a conservative at this point. I am happy he is standing up and leading on issues that are important and need to be addressed.
Not near enough of our GOP members are fighting and leading on issues and taking it staight and hard to Obama.
This country is dying for a strong leader who loves this country, its foundation the constitution, its traditions and wants to fight for its future and isnt afraid of the lamestream media pukes.
jimstl commented:
These numbnuts like Krauthammer miss the bigger point. It’s not about Trump per say, it’s how he is fighting. 55% of the people who vote in this country are looking to make Obama a 1 term president. And all they see in the GOP are a bunch of politically correct cowards who are trained to fight on the left’s acceptable terms. They are a bunch of cowards. Look no further than the FY2011 boondoggle.
Along comes Trump with barrels blazing. Yeah, we know his past, his campaign contributions, his flip flops which make John Kerry’s look small by comparison. BUT HE IS FIGHTING THE LEFT, that is what is driving people to him.
bigkahuna commented:
As I see it…in the absance of real leadership people will follow those who make the attempt.
Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachman, Chris Christie,Allen West, Hermain Cain and Paul Ryan are those that seem to be out there leading the charge. Trump is not my final choice but in the mean time he is talking about issues too many others wont or dont.
Carbon Pootprint commented:
Trump is a Progressive Manhattanstani and all these BS is just what the terrorist who attacked us in Sept 2008 want. Talk about anything but them breaking it off in the azz of America.
Robert commented:
If the snooty Krauthammer is worried about getting distracted from the debate, then that would be because he himself doesn’t want to address the issues directly. Notice that every time someone starts talking like a conservative, Snooty talks them down.
Say what you want about Trump, he is taking it to them like nobody else. And there is plenty of time to get to the other issues. Maybe The Snoot could articulate some of them right now half as well as Trump will, if he’s so concerned about it.
Sickofobama commented:
#16:
Exactly!
Like Rush said – Trump is taking it to Obama!
The rest of the GOP are such pansies because they are afraid to confront Obama about anything because he is 1/2 black.
And they are afraid of his media! What the hell is that all about? Obama’s bootlickers are always going to hate Republicans – what makes these Republicans think they will ever like them?
The political correct BS has got to stop if we are going to save America!
Robert commented:
And about the end of that clip, I’ve had it with this “humanitarian” approach to WAR!
If we’re going to go in somewhere, we should go in, blow up whatever needs it, then either run the damn place or get the hell out!
An yes, Iraq owes us a $Trillion for freeing them from the sadistic dictator and his sons who would have perpetuated the evil.
Valerie commented:
Somebody needs to ask Charles if he is responding to actual video of an event, or is relying on reports from strongly biased observers.
Like I said before, even the local Democrats in San Diego have noticed that Donald Trump has something to say about a wide variety of issues, and somehow, the media doesn’t want voters to know that.
Mr. Potato Head commented:
Trump represents the skunk at the garden party to these beltway folks.
The only types Charles et al are interested in are the weak-kneed “don’t want to offend” wonk candidates who run around with eye shades and sharp pencils.
save us commented:
trump is alot of hot air.
he loves to keep himself in the spotlight
he hasn’t a clue about the real issues and is another leftie who is looking to use the republicans for his own benefit
Robert commented:
Perhaps the erudite intellectual Snoot could figure out that the issue is more than a “birther” issue, it is also about citizenship. And actions taken and others NOT taken by the so-called president leave millions of people top wonder just where his loyalties lie.
Further, the erudite intellectual Snoot could surmise that the other missing information IS significant and could lead to a greater understanding by the American knuckle-dragging public of the motives and thought processes that are driving Barack Hussein Obama to promulgate policies that are leading the American Enterprise to disaster.
I think Krauthammer is spouting obfuscative nonsense that fails to get to the central point of any issues that may be aired in this coming campaign.
Bill Mitchell commented:
I’m disliking CK more and more each day. What a douche. Name-calling? Seriously?
Bill Mitchell commented:
The birther issue isn’t about birth certificates, it is about honestly and trust.
donh commented:
Its been a bad week for RINOS. They can’t take it to Obama because Karl Rove is the one who planted Obama in the Whitehouse . Rove admitted Obama is a close friend of his chief whitehouse deputy at the 1:10 mark of this interview. This is why RINOS help cover Obama’s personal papers . Trump is exposing the one party rule conspiracy of DC elites against the common American. … http://youtu.be/ielyhbi3lVY
workingclass artist commented:
If Trump keeps this up everybody else will pay a lot of money to campaign while Trump gets free media….savvy….And CK is often just another smug Don’t think cause I’ll do it for you blithering babbler….
I get pretty sick of these sideline critics….They never think anybody is good enough for them….
Old Fan commented:
Nothing “horrible” about it Mr. Hoft. Mr. Krauthammer may be a be a bit crud in this regard, but he is right on target.
Calling him an ‘elitist’ is a big let down from GP’s great history. Are you into class warfare Mr. Hoft? I have never seen you play this rather sad game ever, in all the years you have been offering the best.
Besides, Mr. Trump is a TRUE ELITIST. He inherited everything from his Father basically. He is a true con artist, and is now playing the fashions which are growing against the disastrous Democratic Party.
Trump is as bad as bloomberg, just he has a big mouth and a great Celebrity than Bloomy.
Why would you want to cheer on the Donald?
Are you stuck on Celebrity? Did you forget he actually called GW Bush “evil” ???
We all laugh at his mocking the disastrous Democrats, as it is truly welcome for any to join on the good side. But again, Trump will sell anyone down a river for his own gain.
Placating another fashionable movement on another lack of substance, a Celebrity fan fare nothing, is hardly the sound Conservatism which will eventually win the day and save this Nation.
Old Fan commented:
LOL !
donh commented?
Has ‘donh’ been smoking a little something?
Listen to this nonsense:
“Its been a bad week for RINOS. They can’t take it to Obama because Karl Rove is the one who planted Obama in the Whitehouse…”
Hehehehe…
You know, long ago, some Democratic Partisan loyalists who thought they were libertarian, only they just wanted pot legalized – and some social welfare, got online to undermine the sound Conservatives serving in the GOP. Some very foolish Conservatives online bought into the folly.
They all enabled the worst in 2006, then it grew to a complete meltdown with 2008. Our Nation pays for this sophistry today.
Anyone pushing a “one party conspiracy” needs some sincere professional help. Anyone who is vilifying Karl Rove, is a tried and true example of someone who simply is not conservative, and really has no clue.
This garbage, this cabal – conspiracy nonsense, is about as sane as those pushing “truther” conspiracies about 9-11.
They need help with reality, and many are simply Democratic Partisan cons, trying to divide the adults in the political realm – eager to debase the GOP.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
True. Much of what he says seems sort of “out there,” at least to me, but maybe that’s because I’ve been listening to mealy-mouthed politicians yammer on endlessly while saying a whole lotta’ nada for too many years. Anyway, the point is that Trump does talk about a lot of things other than Barky being ineligible to serve as POTUS.
While we’re talking about how American Trump is or is not, let’s not forget that he offered to buy out one of the Ground Zero Victory Mosque thugs, unlike Republican Mayor Dhimmi Bloomberg, who’s fought tooth and nail for the Islamic Supremacists, just to put a stop to the project.

Trump Offers to Buy Out Thug Developer of Islamic Supremacist Ground Zero Mosque
September 9, 2010
Donald Trump makes bid for proposed mosque building NY Post
“New York real estate mogul Donald Trump today offered to buy the proposed site of a mosque near Ground Zero, seeking to end what has become a nationwide controversy.Trump’s all-cash offer would put an end to any effort to building an Islamic community centering containing a mosque at the Park Place site — which is two blocks from the World Trade Center site.”
Trump may be too far to the left for most of us, but he’s still to the right of the average lefturd (aka Islamo-Marxist) and even right of many high profile RINOs.
Amjean commented:
#16 – you stated it perfectly. We conservatives want someone to take it to Obama,
his band of thugs and the liberal whackos that support him.
Palin has been questioning Obama on the issues all along, however, the media is ignoring it; Trump is now shouting about what should have been vetted about Obama prior to 2008! – Trump is getting
attention because he brought up the dreaded birther issue. When they attack him on
it, Trump attacks right back. Trump is standing up to Saurkraut’s attack, although Saurkraut upped the anty this evening I hear. Can’t wait to hear Trump’s response.
This is all very entertaining. Trump probably won’t run; however, he is getting conservatives riled up about issues they ignored in 2008. Voters think/know (depending
on where they are at on the intelligence scale) Obama duped the country. The socialists
waited 40 years for a candidate to “completely change the course of the country”, and
not for the good; they are panic stricken that they will lose all they gained. The unions
are also in panic because the public is starting to see them for what they really are.
2012 will be a battle of historic proportions. Trump can lead the charge at this stage of
the game for all I care. He gets our blood moving – we have all been complacent for too
long. When the general comes I want him campaigning for Palin.
M1 commented:
Serves you right for watching Fox News.
AuntieMadder commented:
@ #5 bigkahuna – Krauthammer and Rove showed their true colors when they bashed O’Donnell after she’d won the GOP primaries for her state and district. Since the Republican Old Guarde’s pick couldn’t take the seat, they’d rather see the Demonrat take it than the newbie outsider chosen by the district’s Republican voters. CK and KR are fighting hard to maintain the Republican party status quo and their place in it.
PS: They’re toeing the line, not towing it. Picture a line on the ground and their toes are right up to it but not crossing it. They’re standing just where they’re supposed to stand, toes at the line. That’s toeing the line, as opposed to towing a line, which I guess would involve a wrecker and a whole lotta’ fishing line. ???
Fuzzy commented:
#10
Trump IS, effectively, Obama (and by extension every tyrant you listed). Do some research. The man has no regard for personal property (has used his money and government ties to try to have an old lady evicted from her home via eminent domain so that he could build a parking lot. For limos. That’s not elitist?).
I agree that CK is often off the rails (his article about BO being the “comeback kid” made me want to vomit), but this is not one of those times. Trump is no good, and anyone pointing that out is A-OK in my book.
CT commented:
Charles Krauthammer has the Donald’s number, Trump is a baffoon. God Bless him if he makes Obama’s life hell, but he will never be a Republican candidate for the presidency. The stakes are too high and the risk of failure too great to waste time on crank candidates, lets get serious people.
Ruebacca commented:
Seizing oil is what Hilter tried in southern russia and the Japs attacked us in ww2 so they could seize the dutch oil fields in Indonesia. We are liberators not conquerors.
Taking money for military operations is what mercenaries do. If it’s not in our interest I don’t want our boys involved.
Trumps rhetoric is fun but his policy positions are moronic.
sandy commented:
The trouble with the Media Intelligentsia is that they are not Intelligent. Who in the Hell is Krauthammer to tell the rest of us what to think? Didn’t he vote for Obama? And isn’t he a psychiatrist? Hey shrink heal thyself before you psyche out the rest of us.
K~Bob commented:
Krauthammer is not a fan of the Tea Party, nor is he a total, uppercase ‘C’ Conservative. He’s a center-right guy, and wants to see some strong center-right guy (not a woman; not for Charles), like Christie or Jeb as POTUS.
Problem is we’re headed straight for the falls, and all that center-right folks will do is make sure we go over facing slightly starboard. Trump might get us some life jackets and a decent round of drinks first, but he ain’t steering the boat away from the edge.
You folks who are so damned freaked out about Obama that you’d go with Trump had better get used to twisty lightbulbs, Obamacare Forever, China as the lone naval superpower, and more limits on your liberty than ever before, because he isn’t interested in individual liberty, he just wants a better-valued dollar and some smarter clowns running the statist show.
We saw that with Bush, Sr., and W. That’s got a lot to do with our lack of drilling, the rise of the EPA uber alles, and the rise of the SEIU.
Sure, glom on to trump. Abandon your ideals. Hell, sell everything you own and have one big, last party while you’re at it.
Just stay off my lawn.
sandy commented:
I am old enough to remember when the media did news instead of a bunch of talking heads on every show who believe that those of us who live in real America are a bunch of idiots. I will never watch The Kraut or Rover again.
AuntieMadder commented:
@ #26 donh – I listened to the clip and what I heard is that his White House deputy was a classmate of Barky’s, rather than a close friend of Barky’s. Still, perhaps someone should interview this unnamed deputy and former classmate. I mean, FINALLY, someone who knew Barky before Chicago is a rarity.
John commented:
If you understand the New York City media, Trump=Sharpton makes perfect sense.
The Donald has been in the NYC media spotlight for a third of a century now, and Al’s been in it for 24 years because of one thing – both will never show any shame for their actions, and neither will ever admit to a mistake. Boastful bluster combined with an absolute lack of any self doubt or remorse will keep you in the public spotlight in New York forever.
Which is why it’s OK to enjoy the Trump show right now, as he makes Obama his personal piñata, but just remember — if sometime down the line The Donald decided it was better for The Donald to spout a more liberal ideological line, he will throw conservatives under the bus in a New York nanosecond, with no qualms or remorse about the action. It’s his life story, if he can walk away from paying back multimillion dollar loans and never even admit he owed the money in the first place, he can walk away from birther claims and all his other found-in-the-last-24-months conservative principles.

So where’s Trump’s statement about this: http://www.mywesttexas.com/news/opinion/article_09c0d72d-c2ec-529e-b291-65456dc1dd4e.html
The Govt. wants to put the sagebrush lizard on the endangered list, this would pretty much shut down drilling in a huge cunk of Texas. Where’s Trump’s comment? Heck, where is the comment from any of the so called “conservative” politicians?
And it gets better: http://www.krgv.com/news/local/story/Improvised-Explosive-Device-Discovered-On-An/9r7k8ch2E0GJqEX_-YhSwQ.cspx
First IED in America.
But I know screaming “birth certificate!” on top of ones lungs is more important.
Trump is a douchebag. If you really put your hopes on him, you deserve to go under.

Talk about “pot calling the kettle black”… seriously? You’re complaining about Krauthammer…? what the heck is Trump, but a “RINO”…. lol…

Words… or Actions … your choice
Trumps donations lean toward Democrats:
“Recipients include Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (Nev.), former Pennsylvania governor Edward G. Rendell, and Rahm Emanuel, a former aide to President Obama who received $50,000 from Trump during his recent run to become Chicago’s mayor, records show. Many of the contributions have been concentrated in New York, Florida and other states where Trump has substantial real estate and casino interests….
….The Democratic recipients of Trump’s donations make up what looks like a Republican enemies list, including former senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.), Sen. John F. Kerry (Mass.), Rep. Charles B. Rangel (N.Y.), Sen. Charles E. Schumer (N.Y.) and the late liberal lion Edward M. Kennedy (Mass.).
The biggest recipient of all has been the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee of New York, which has taken in more than $125,000 from Trump and his companies. Overall, Trump has given nearly $600,000 to New York state campaigns, with more than two-thirds going to Democrats.”
Now that’s what I call “horrible”…. but Rove and Krauthammer are the problem…. are we becoming a bunch of tools???
CrackerMike commented:
Trump’s job for Obama is to split the Republican vote in ’12 by running as an Independent. Trump see’s how well Jeffery Immelt did with GE by bribing Obama, in fact, GE paid ZERO taxes. Trump wants to his hisself some o that good stuff too, and believe me, Obama will pay him back.
toongoon commented:
Wow, to read some of the “conservative” posts here you would think that Trump is our (McCain) candidate for POTUS. Wake up guys, Trump will not be president but he is serving a purpose of throwing the demonrats off message. CK has a nasty habit of taking pot shots at conservatives, yes, liberals too, but we don’t him choosing our candidate for us.
Anyone who will bring the fight to the progressives needs our support to win the battle, but only the battle, the war will be won by winning many, many battles. If we eliminate Trump as he is winning his battle, the battle will be lost. Soon we will have a candidate who will fight the battles and still be standing at the end.
How many “conservatives” have taken pot shots at palin when she opened up dialog, when she is fighting the battle, or they hate everything about her regadless of her message, and would rather she be gone than using common sense arguments. CK is one of them.
Trump will not be the republican candidate, so allow him to carry the message as long as he is on our side. and pull him out when he when he no longer serves that purpose. Because that is when the media is going to want to keep him in the headlines.
raybojabo commented:
Calm down people. The campaigning really has’nt started yet. No-one has declared yet. Now is the time to spank Odumbo and his media puppets. Trump is leading the charge and has them reduced to a quivering mass of jello. He has drawn everyone into his web and is also exposing the GOP phonies as well. The election is a long way off, enjoy the show. When he brings down Odumbo the whole elitest show goes with him. Ask yourself, who knew what and when did they know it? When Pelosi and the DNC endorsed him as an eligible candidate did they already know he was a fraud? If not, what made them so sure he qualified? Apparently a long form birth certificate was never released and reviewed by the DNC or anyone else.
In an AP article from 2004, (7 short years ago when Odumbo was a nobody running for state senate), they referred to him as Kenyan-born. Now they carry his water along with the rest of the liberal media. What gives? This conspiracy is very real and it goes way beyond its stooge, Odumbo.

Facts are hard things! I’d like to refer Jim Hoft and all the Trump defenders (and Krauthammer haters) to this clipping from today’s Washington Post about ‘the Donald’ regarding Trump’s donations and to which Democrats they seem to go:

Rendell, and Rahm Emanuel, a former aide to President Obama who received $50,000 from Trump during his recent run to become Chicago’s mayor, records show.

“Horrible” is starting to become an overused headline-starter here. Granted, it’s often used to report something truly outrageous from Obama/Pelosi/Reid. But Krauthammer? Come on, now. Trump is indeed a buffoon and cannot be trusted. I have no problem with Trump taking on various Obama issues, including whatever has been left dangling or hidden (birther stuff, college creds, etc.) but he is NOT to be taken seriously, which is the entire point CK (who very rarely engages in hyperbole or ad-hominem attacks) is making. So, enough already with the “elitist” and other such mudslinging crap. CK is right on target, as usual. I suspect his unusual “name-calling” here is really a plea not to saddle us with another McCain or, worse, Perot.

Thank you for refering us to the Liberal media outlet. Maybe we should start reading the New York Times too. What is so hard about not letting the media choose our candidate for us?
Please, The liberal media is not our friend. Do not them trust them as a reliable source of information. They lie and distort news just to disparage anyone who is not a demoncrat.
They might actually be telling the truth this time, but I doubt it. They are unreliable in in the majority of their coverage.
Do your own research, I know it can be hard to double check everything you read but it is harder to be enslaved by the socialist/progressives who are spoon-feeding you false information to skew your ability to reason, but it’s worth it to not get stuck with another media-ordained McCain style candidate.
JimmyT commented:
Really people. Trump knows he doesn’t stand a snowballs chance, but, I say “GO DONALD”, get this stuff about bambi out there. Challenge his socialist policies and friends. Maybe the other candidates will grow a backbone when they see the attention he gets. Romney or Huckasnufalus can beat bambi, but they wouldn’t push to reduce the size of government. West would be the perfect candidate.
Freddy commented:
If you listen close you hear Bill whack Charles over the head!
Bill “Those guys in that bar have as much of a vote as you do.”
Charles “I dont have as low an opinion of American people as you do.”
Charles tries to pretend that Bill has somehow demeaned people in bars, but his statement makes no sense as it was Charles that had produced the analogy.

I am truly disappointed in Charles Krauthammer, he has stooped to new lows. He used to be one of my favorite pundits.
I am beginning to wonder whose side he is really on…..sigh.
bastiches commented:
Trump is not a conservative. I repeat, Trump is not a conservative. All those who waste energy contemplating his candidacy need to take a moment and examine his background.
How on earth could any conservative think for a second about voting for someone who agrees with the Kelo decison?
Jackie commented:
Charles is beginning to be a pain in the butt!
Rob Taylor commented:
Why? Trump is a Liberal. He supports gun control, he supports the Kelo decision, he’s conning you guys. He’s making a fortune in this economy and is trying to keep Obama in office.
