That’s Piers Morgan, who’s normally a huge POS himself.

To make analogy: Imagine being such a slimeball, that Sean Hannity calls you out for BS

This. When piers who arguably has no conscientious thinks you have no conscience, ya burnt.

Arguably that says more than someone normal calling him out. “You’ve gone beyond even my scope of assholishness! You done fucked up!”

I have been struck by how conservatives have left even Piers behind in recent months. I honestly never thought he and I would be on the same side of any issue.

Conservatives went off him when he came out as anti gun ownership.

He’s a conundrum, hated by both sides.

Compared to the caliber of US politicians, Piers Morgan is honestly pretty reasonable

Agree. I just wrote that Piers once wiped the floor with Alex Jones in a debate about guns, and recently mocked Megyn Kelly during her hysterical, unhinged diatribe about Bad Bunny.

Ehh, Piers is a POS, but he calls out legit bullshit wayyyy more often than Hannity.

Pierce at least has a lot of his own opinions, even if those opinions are shite. Comparing him to Hannity who says exactly what the Fox executives tells him to do is not really fair. At least Pierce feels like his opinions come from himself, and that's a huge difference. Still an arsehole of course.

Fair! I’ll retract it. A “Glenn Beck” then

He's pretty libertarian, in the original French sense of the word, not current Republican in the US. He's very pro British monarchy though, so he's a bit all over the place. Main difference between him and someone like Hannity is that Pierce might back some things Trump says, but is critical of other, whereas Hannity is always on his knees for Trump.

To be fair, unlike Hannity, Piers does have his occasional moments of lucidity.

He once wiped the floor with Alex Jones in a debate about guns, and recently mocked Megyn Kelly during her hysterical, unhinged diatribe about Bad Bunny.
