In a world where the political theater often feels like a circus, it seems there’s always another clown stepping into the spotlight. This week, Keith Olbermann stumbled into the ring. He’s been on the warpath over the latest post from former President Trump. The post, reminiscent of a Hollywood script, suggested Joe Biden was a clone, executed, and turned into a robot. Olbermann, not known for his subtlety, found his way to the top of his digital soapbox, broadcasting his fury at what he believes is Trump’s leap into full-blown lunacy.

Olbermann’s predictable meltdown aired on his podcast, portraying Trump as a madman, supposedly spreading the clone conspiracy about Biden. This, of course, is where Trump Derangement Syndrome flourishes—where every post is a reason for a public spectacle. It’s as if the tiniest tweet from Trump is enough to send Olbermann and others like him spiraling into a frenzy of disbelief and indignation.

Meanwhile, what Olbermann seems to miss is what happens when you’re shouting into a vacuum. It’s as though he’s trying to convince everyone he’s the last voice of reason in a world gone mad. As Keith Olbermann battles his digital foes, he seems oblivious to various ironies surrounding him.

Donald Trump’s clone narrative isn’t likely to bring about the 25th Amendment, nor is it expected to sway the opinion of most folks outside Olbermann’s orbit. For now, it appears both Olbermann and his Trump-bashing peers will persist in this bizarre echo chamber of indignation and outrage. Like a never-ending series, they’re caught in a loop where every new episode is another opportunity to play the role of the misguided hero. Whether or not the audience is still watching seems to be a detail lost in the noise of their own self-importance.
