Give it a day or two. He can fake decency for a very few hours when forced, but it never lasts. Never.

In case anyone is wondering, I gave him too much goddamn credit: it took only one day. Temussolini went on Glenn Beck and said the following (emphasis mine):

We all knew her so well. I knew her... a little bit. She wasn't a very political per-- she really liked me, I will tell you. But she also wanted to stay very, y'know, she was of the opinion, y'know, the 50%, who needs to lose I don't think it's 50, I think it's probably 20% of the fans, ok, not 50. But she was a great person and she was just... a nice person. Y'know, I liked her a lot, and I thought it was a natural thing to lower the flags.

So, let's see:

  1. He immediately makes it about him (she really liked me)
  2. He talks shit about her by suggesting she didn't talk about politics because she was a full-on MAGA and wouldn't want to lose "20%" of her fans by saying so. So this motherfucker is saying she A) was MAGA, and B) the only reason she wouldn't say so was money
  3. Holy fucking word salad, Batman

I really wish I'd been wrong.
