You can’t make this stuff up.
Last night, Lawrence O’Donnell devoted an entire segment of his show to oh-so-courageously announce that no, the world will not in fact end on May 21st, much to the chagrin of Family Radio president Harold Camping (who had previously predicted that the apocalypse would happen in 1994) and his followers. And of course, O’Donnell just wouldn’t be O’Donnell if he didn’t find a way to squeeze in some sort of comparison to Glenn Beck or Donald Trump (in this case the former) while doing it:
I have had to tell Glenn Beck’s audience that the world is not going to end, and now it falls to me to tell Harold Camping’s audience that the world is not going to end. Specifically, it is not going to end on May 21st.
Any plans you have made for the world to end on May 21st are a mistake, a terrible mistake. You should go back to putting money in your 401Ks. And when the world doesn’t end on May 21st and you realize Harold Camping is a complete fraud and you feel confused and adrift in the world and don’t know where to look for guidance, just know that, on May 23rd at 8 P.M, the man who told you the truth about the end of the world will be once again sitting in this chair, telling you more truth.
And from that day forth, having renounced the teachings of Harold Camping, you will always have this program to come to to help you see the light.
And here is the video:
Now all the world needs is someone who will help the followers of St. Lawrence the Self-Righteous and his Church of Liberalism see that they too seek guidance from a false prophet.
