The amazing thing to me is that they can continuously do shit like this, and yet there will always be “normies” (and even some in the comedy industry themselves) whining about how the left is ruining comedy blah blah…
It’s just insane the automatic benefit of the doubt that the right gets on every fucking issue.
It’s always projection with these assholes. fElon whined about “free speech” and now wants the government to come down on people that insult him or his shitty cars. fElon and lots of other RW assholes whined that comedy wasn’t legal, was getting people “cancelled” and now…they are literally cancelling comedy.
Wut happun? I thought elon made comedy legal again. 🤭
Thin-skinned bitches
Snowflakes.
Ah, who are the snowflakes again?? Got to suppress criticism, especially if it is funny.
Much like reality, comedy has a well-known liberal bias.
Snowflakes
Evil can’t stand to be laughed at.
It’s quite possibly the reason he ran in the first place lol
He had run before that roast. But yeah i think it made him hate stand up, and reinforced his drive.
Yeah, he ran as part of Perot’s reform party lol
So fragile, they need to be treated very gently
“The devil… the prowde spirite… cannot endure to be mocked.”
Thomas Moore
Meanwhile, the actual devil (Lucifer) couldn’t give to shits about being mocked lol.
If he were real of course.
Great April fools guys!
Guys?
Too bad. Trevor Noah’s gig was unforgettable.
I think the best one ever was Stephen Colbert. Followed by Seth Meyers, I think. But Colbert’s was just so…perfect. You could tell it was great because the Beltway class was harumphing about it in the aftermath.
Surely this will not go over well with President Elon “Free Speech Absolutist” Musk, right? RIGHT???
Elon Musk (after buying Twitter): “Comedy is now legal.”
Elon Musk: “[the] Left found nothing funny, wanted to make comedy illegal.”
Trump tried to get DOJ to go after Saturday Night Live for mocking him
“As president, Trump briefly attempted to get Justice officials to twist campaign finance laws and the federal equal-time rule to declare that anti-Trump material broadcast by Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, and others was somehow illegal,” the publication writes.
“During his 2024 campaign, according to a source with direct knowledge, Trump has raised this topic again, venting about the need to punish late-night comedians for giving “illegal” campaign contributions to the Democratic Party — in the form of jokes and on-air satire.”
While career officials at the DOJ ignored these orders from Trump during his first term, the publication notes that they could actually become a reality should Trump win a second term given how much his allies have worked to weed out anyone who might be disloyal to his agenda.
“There are no guardrails,” Yale scholar Jason Stanley told Rolling Stone of Trump. “He already has control of any institutions that might stop him.”
he never got over obama roasting him. in anycase, conservatives never could understand how comedy works, because all they do is know how to punch down, and it often comes from bigotry and hateful sources.
That’s completely accurate.
He loves to dish out insults but can’t handle it being done to him even in jest. What a strong man.
I blame Obama 100% for Trump running. He just couldn’t fucking help himself.
They should have canceled the entire “White House Correspondents’ Dinner” and simply held a completely new event at the exact same time at the same venue with a different name, and kept the jokes at the president’s expense.
It’s not White House’s Correspondents’ Dinner. It’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
The Correspondents organize it. It’s hosted in a Hilton hotel, not at the White house. The White House doesn’t control it in any way. This is simply the press rolling over to appease the fascists because they are scared of losing access.
They should hold it at the Four Seasons.
Once again demonstrating their collective cowardice…
Obeying in advance. Can’t risk upsetting Don Mangolini. The Mafia Bully Admin wins again.
🙄 🙄
Jon Stewart, et al, should host a competing event.
I would def watch.
PLEASE.
It’s very concerning that the White House Correspondent’s Dinner would succumb to White House pressure. Now we see how theyll respond when HitlerPig demands they suppress his scandals.
Now we see
Where’ve you been since 2016?
