Tom Arnold: Proof That Any Loon With Anti-Trump Angle Gets Airtime on CNN and MSNBC
“I’m spending the weekend hanging out with Michael Cohen. And there’s a lot going on.”
Like many other Hollywood has-beens, Tom Arnold is trying to revive his career by appealing to the anti-Trump crowd. He recently made some wild claims about former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen on CNN, but the segment made him look mentally ill.
P.J. Gladnick of NewsBusters sets the scene:
Tom Arnold has Epic Meltdown During CNN Interview with Poppy Harlow
Comedian Tom Arnold’s funniest performance might have happened on the evening of June 22. He didn’t even intend to be funny but his epic meltdown during his interview about the supposed Trump tapes with Poppy Harlow who was substituting for Erin Burnett is destined to be viewed by millions as comedy relief. Besides the hilarious notion that he and former Donald Trump lawyer Michael Cohen are buddies despite only a chance meeting for a quick selfie photo, Arnold experienced two embarrassingly long brain freezes during the interview.
Combined with his constant fidgeting, nervous tics, and the inability to answer simple questions, the two major brain freezes are just the icing on the cake of his unintentional comedy classic.
This has to be seen to be believed:
This is an apt observation:
WATCH: It looks like Tom Arnold needs rehab more than a guest spot on CNN…

Cohen has already refuted Arnold’s claims:
Appreciate @TomArnold kind words about me as a great father, husband and friend. This was a chance, public encounter in the hotel lobby where he asked for a selfie. Not spending the weekend together, did not discuss being on his show nor did we discuss @POTUS. #done #ridiculous

MSNBC saw this interview and thought: We need to book this guy right away!
Matt Wilstein writes at the Daily Beast:
Tom Arnold in Bonkers MSNBC Interview: Michael Cohen Knows Trump ‘Does Not Care About Him’
On Thursday evening, actor Tom Arnold tweeted a photo of himself with longtime Donald Trump fixer Michael Cohen and the message, “I love New York.” By Friday morning, he was claiming that he and Cohen would be “taking Trump down together,” adding: “This dude has all the tapes.”
Those tapes—allegedly an outtake reel of the president using the “n-word” during his Celebrity Apprentice days, among other things—are at the center of an upcoming Viceland special Arnold is hosting, called The Hunt for the Trump Tapes.
You can see the video in Byron York’s tweet below:

If that’s not enough crazy for you, you’re in luck. Arnold is also saying he wants to target the children of Trump and others. Caleb Tolin reports at MRCTV:
Actor Tom Arnold Vows To Harass Barron Trump at School Over Trump’s Border Policy
Actor Tom Arnold, Roseanne’s ex-husband, tweeted that he is going to harass the Trumps in several different locations to protest the President’s recent immigration policies.
In a tweet, Arnold says he plans to show up at Barron Trump’s school because he knows Melania will be there to drop him off. He wants to harass the First Lady and her son because that is definitely how we change policy, right?
Way past sad & all in for these kids with @JuddApatow @FoxNews already hates me. On a plane to NY. Next is protesting Baron’s private school as well as James & Lachlan Murdoch’s kids. This is what I can do to end the abuse of these children. We’re going to make you uncomfortable https://t.co/ESAIWC49la

Dude, we can protest at The White House too. Also Melania takes him to school. We want to have a word with her. If we see babies tomorrow we’re going to Kushners kids school. Don Jr’s kids are already working at Hooters so we’ll protest there for lunch.

He’s still pissed at Roseann’s success
Good Lord, that is a fuzzy ball of crazy. Looks like he just polished off a jar of hair
What a loser
1,. Shame on you. Tom Arnold is not a hasbeen. He’s a neverwas.
2. He sounds drunk to me.
Imagine how sad it is to be a man whose only claim to “fame” is that he was once married to Roseanne Barr. And then even Roseanne got sick of him and dumped him.
He was actually very good in Roseanne. He played his character well, and his character was a much better and saner person than he evidently is.
yeah and the best part was how he cleverly disguised himself to look just like John Goodman.
Oops. Shows how much attention I pay to these people.
OOPS!! Caught in a B.S. lie. Looks like he’s trying to be “Micheal Moore relevant”. “I’ve got a bombshell of political information that will destroy the government as we know it but it’s so damaging I can’t tell you what it is.”
Looked to me that he was desperately trying to come up with some kind of comment that made it seem like Cohen was secretly giving information, yet couldn’t come up with anything plausible.
His bouncing says it all. He is a rabid hater, which is fine, he has that right, but he is selling air, in my opinion.
He has a bombshell, he has tapes that he and his butt buddy Cohen were spending the weekend going through and having such a good time (in the future), yet no. I’m not going to share it. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggggggggggggght.
Kinda reminds me of Big Foot sightings. Ya know, “I have PROOF BF exists, just watch my film. I know it’s blurry and sort of looks like a stump but…it’s REALLY Sasquatch.”
Riiiiiight.
harleycowboy…
This is an obvious attempt to promo his “Trump Tapes” show for Viceland…
How big is the following of the Vice site and how many people have ever seen any of the “Viceland specials”?
The MSM is giving Tom some free publicity…
Like how he’s sticking with the Weinstein look.

Tom Arnold, the real life version of Paul Blart mall cop. Yeah, I certainly would pick him to be on my team 😉
You are insulting a fictional character.
One of the film locations for “Paul Blart: Mall Cop” was South Shore Plaza in Braintree, Massachusetts.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Blart:_Mall_Cop
https://www.miltons.com/locations
The town of Braintree had an Auxiliary Police Department, trained but unpaid volunteers who sometimes substituted for the regular officers during training events, known as “Town Takeovers”. The Braintree Police Department also provided EMS ambulance service to the town. Two BAPD officers who were EMTs were manning the police cruiser that responded to the “unresponsive person” call that was Dianne Devanna. The officers initiated CPR and transported her to South Shore Hospital where she was pronounced dead.

The names of those two BAPD officers?
Gary Miller and Walter Shaw.
The day jobs of those two volunteers?
South Shore Plaza mall cops.
I just love the stunned deer-in-the-headlights pauses. He epitomizes TDS, showing all the symptoms.
This should be played over and over again. I bet the TDS crowd was cheering, but for what, I will never know.
I get it that the hatred media would look to find out what he “knows”, but don’t they vet these people to see what he is going to say, I’m not saying it will be quotes, and sure, he could lie and say he has something, but wouldn’t the media at least try to do a little digging to verify claims anyone like him is trying to make?
Did they even check to see if he was booked or Cohen was booked in the hotel in the first place? Did they at least try to reach out to Cohen, whom Tommy boy is making claims about, and see if he would verify even a slight smidgen of Tom Arnold’s claims?
You would think a media network would not want to be made out to look foolish by having him on and him doing exactly this. And yet they believe it is dangerous to our republic that they are being dubbed Fake News. Trust in the media is at all time lows because of things like this, and their beyond insane hatred of Trump.
Next is protesting Baron’s private school…
Where (I hope) you will be met by friendly Secret Service agents who will invite you most cordially to a nice little chat.
Why would you hope that, since of course it would be a cordial and polite chat, wouldn’t it? Or are you suggesting the secret service should become criminals by illegally bullying and threatening him under color of law for exercising his constitutional right to show the whole world what an idiot he is?
Or are you suggesting the secret service should become criminals by illegally bullying and threatening him under color of law for exercising his constitutional right to show the whole world what an idiot he is?
No sane person would have inferred that I was suggesting anything of the sort.
So we’re back to my first question. Why would you hope for him to have a pleasant and non-threatening conversation with the secret service? What good do you expect would come from such a conversation?
Oh, and actually whether you meant it that way or not, lots of people, including, sadly, several commenters here on LI, would mean it exactly like that.

Tom Arnold says “Look-at-me, look-at-me, look-at-me, look-at-me, look-at-me, FOR GOD’S SAKE LOOK AT ME!”
But it’s too late. He’s been Irrelevant for years.
