Geraldo Rivera: Trump acting like ‘entitled frat boy’ since losing election

Fox News pundit Geraldo Rivera slammed President Trump, saying he has been acting like an “entitled frat boy” since losing a “bitterly contested election.”

“For almost 4 years I’ve supported @realDonaldTrump who was assailed by leftist creeps who conjured the Russia Hoax to wreck his presidency,” Rivera tweeted late Saturday night.

“Nevertheless he prevailed. Sadly he lost a bitterly contested election. Shit happens. However since he has behaved like an entitled frat boy,” he added.

Since President-elect Joe Biden was projected the winner of the election, Rivera has feuded with pro-Trump figures in the media and online, saying Trump’s claims of a rigged election and widespread voter fraud are false.

“That is so dishonest,” Rivera told Trump ally Charlie Kirk during a segment on Fox News about voter fraud earlier this month. “We have litigated this for six weeks! Twice the Supreme Court of the United States rejected it!”

A week earlier, Rivera revealed on an episode of “The Five,” a program on which he is sometimes a guest, that Trump was no longer taking his calls.

“I don’t mean to be petty or partisan. I just want you to know that as his friend — even if he may not be speaking to me right now because of my position on the election being over,” Rivera said at the time.

One week ago, Rivera blasted Republicans who have given credence to Trump’s claims of voter fraud or talked about contesting the election results.

“Time to stop playing around with the Constitution. Biden won. Trump lost,” Rivera said on Twitter. “Stop acting like spoiled brats. Or worse, the lunatic fringe. Enough. Basta.”
