Snowflakes
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.
The no-fun administration. Because anyone having fun might end up laughing at donvict and pals.
Snowflakes.
Jeez even Fox’s Guttfield wouldn’t do it… Tough times.
Spineless toadying courtiers.
Thin-skinned bitches
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.
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?
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.”
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
“The devil… the prowde spirite… cannot endure to be mocked.”
Thomas Moore
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.
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.
So this isn’t the Onion.
Comedy has been banned everyone, time to wrap it up.
Didn’t musk make some inane comment about comedy being illegal cause he couldn’t say slurs or transphobic shit at some point?
I mean not banned, but the standards have to be improved.
