Todd Talk: When Death Becomes Political: The Lou Holtz Disrespect

PoliticsCurrent EventsCulture
Written By Todd Huff

A 60-second conservative commentary with humor and heart.

Illustrated portrait of legendary Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz with bold editorial elements representing social media outrage, symbolizing the politicization of public figures even after death.

My friends, even death itself has become political for the Radical Left. Legendary Notre Dame football coach Lou Holtz passed away yesterday. Holtz was a devout Catholic and supporter of Donald Trump. Apparently that alone is enough to invite outrage.

Delusional commentator Keith Olbermann responded to Holtz’s death on X by calling him a “legendary scumbag.”

Olbermann is vitriolic, searching for relevance, and spiritually troubled. For people like Olbermann, who have nothing substantive to add to the political discourse, the only way to get people talking about you is to say intentionally inflammatory things like this.

But here’s the truth. Criticizing a man on the very day he dies simply because you disagree with his politics is absolutely pathetic. Behavior like that isn’t courageous or convicted. It’s evil and wicked.
