Costas was asked to clarify before he went into a rant that he was not supporting Trump in the 2024 election.
“Yes, absolutely,” Costas said.
“He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history. He’s only become more disgraceful since 2016 and since 2020. He has a bubbling cauldron of loathsome traits.”

He then unloaded on ordinary Americans, saying people who do not intend to vote for more inflation and more war are in a “cult.”
“It’s only those who are actually suffering from Trump derangement syndrome, which is the way they and Fox News and all the rest of MAGA media try to brush aside all the legitimate criticisms of Trump,” he told CNN’s viewers.
He continued:
“You have to be in the throes of some sort of toxic delusion and in a toxic cult to believe that Donald Trump has ever been, in any sense, emotionally, psychologically, intellectually or ethically fit to be president of the United States. But his supporters are locked in on that.”
Costas also offered criticism of Biden before concluding, “There is no cult of Joe Biden.”
