Keith Olbermann deleted his earlier tweet and apologized for calling President Trump a “whiny little Kunta Kinte” in what he says was an attempt to call the president a “c*nt” by using a word that sounded like “c*nt” without having to type “c***” instead:
Just logged back in: I apologize for my previous subtweet of this. I was using an old 70's-80's technique for calling somebody a c*** without writing/saying c***, just using a sound-alike to call Trump a c***
Deleting previous, largely because this one clarifies the c*** part https://t.co/hIIrt1Ke17

Olbermann will now replace “Kunta Kinte” in his personal lexicography with “see you next Tuesday”:
And you can never keep your personal lexicography as much as you’d like, so I especially appreciate the suggestions in this thread that “See you next Tuesday” is the modern acceptable euphemism.

Wait. . .
So this clown has been using Kunta Kinte to call people c*nts for years? LOL:
So re Trump: see you next Tuesday – although that would’ve been PERFECT a week ago

And it makes no sense:
Dear @KeithOlbermann, #Kunta is pronounced with a long “u” as in unity, not a short “u” as in cup.
Try again!
Love,

Levar Burton even changed his profile pic because of it:

And now we can sit back and watch libs call him out for being sexist:
