Former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann is one of the most unhinged leftists on social media.
Olbermann previously called for Donald Trump and his supporters to be “removed from our society.”
And Keith Olbermann just demanded ESPN fire Pat McAfee after he described Canada with these two hilarious words.
Donald Trump followed through with his promise on Monday to place tariffs on Canada and Mexico under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) unless they put an end to illegal aliens from crossing through their countries and into the United States.
“While President Trump gave both Canada and Mexico ample opportunity to curb the dangerous cartel activity and influx of lethal drugs flowing into our country, they have failed to adequately address the situation,” a White House fact sheet read. “The flow of contraband drugs like fentanyl into the United States, through illicit distribution networks, has created a national emergency, including a public health crisis.”
Trump’s tariffs have created tensions between the United States and Canada.
Canadians reacted with outrage after Trump proposed making Canada the 51st state.
Many Canadians also reacted with outrage to the tariffs.
Previously, Canadian hockey fans booed the national anthem before an NHL matchup and an NBA game.
But on Saturday, Canadians once again booed the national anthem at a WWE event in Toronto.

Booing the national anthem left ESPN and WWE commentator Pat McAfee fuming.
“These are the most stacked Elimination Chambers that the WWE has ever had,” McAfee said.
He then described Canada as a “terrible country.”
“Kinda sucks that it’s in the terrible country of Canada that booed our national anthem to start this entire thing!” he said. “But it’s gonna be a historic night for the WWE on the road to WrestleMania.”

Former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann has a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
And instead of taking issue with booing the national anthem, Olbermann called for ESPN to fire McAfee for calling Canada a “terrible country.”
“A lot of us tried to warn the new espn management that the day would come when this idiot would draw them into a permanent political controversy and they could either be subsumed by it, or fire him,” he wrote. “That day is today.”
“Fire him,” he added.

That day is today. Fire him. https://t.co/DK2pEE6FNE

Of course, Olbermann calling for McAfee to be fired is ironic given that he has been booted from television in the past due to his unhinged rants.
A few days before the November election, Olbermann called for Elon Musk to be arrested and detained.
“We need to arrest and detain @elonmusk immediately,” he wrote.
“He is operating on behalf of Russia,” he continued. “Cancel all contracts, seize his facilities, lock him away in a military facility.”
We need to arrest and detain @elonmusk immediately.
He is operating on behalf of Russia. Cancel all contracts, seize his facilities, lock him away in a military facility.
Now, @potus.
Not tomorrow.

Keith Olbermann is just another rabid leftist who supports a totalitarian police state.
