Discussion: WATCH: Michelle Wolf's Full Performance At White House Correspondents' Dinner

Whats the matter snowflakes?

Can’t take the heat?

If it makes you feel uncomfortable, it might be that it is a little too close to the truth…

Deal with it…

I heard only small portions of the routine, but did watch about 15 minutes of CNN commenting afterwards. What I couldn’t believe (although I should know better) is that the CNN analysts spent the entire time criticizing Wolf for being “too personal” with her satire and defending those who walked out. Hypocrisy, anyone? They work for and defend a man who regularly uses derogatory terms about everyone’s appearance, manner, behavior, ideals, etc. but were horrified that someone could joke about them.

TY for pointing out that stupid mistake. I have since corrected it. If I were talking about one of Trump’s attorneys I would have used the word “sexist”. Of course, if I were talking about one of Trump’s attorneys I could never use the word “sexiest”. LOL!

Just remember: Jake Tapper defended FoxNews when Obama tried to kick them out of the DC press room for basically being a propaganda arm of the GOP, which, of course, they are.
No matter how many times Tapper criticizes Trump, I will never forgive or forget that dick move by him in defense of a sleazeball outfit like FoxNews.

I believe she drinks the blood of young virgin Republican women - you know, the ones that Donald Trump and Roy Moore lust after. She just enjoys the embalming fluid as an aperitif.

Colbert was so good at that, sly, and sort of sneaked up the crowd with his insults, yet dubya didn’t erupt afterwards that I can recall.

I can say a lot of things about Dubya, and I still hate the SOB and his administration is still as bad as it was no matter how badly some are trying to rehabilitate his reputation in comparison to Trump. But I’ll say one thing about GWB: at least he had the cojones to show up at the WHCD, which is more than can be said for President Dickless.

I dislike the comparisons to Colbert’s WHCD performance. He was funnier and had a little more finesse. Wolf was a sledgehammer. Very funny at times, but cringeworthy at times also. As Wolf said herself:
“Yeah, shoulda done more research before you got me to do this.”

But one of the most honest “complaints” about Wolf’s performance came from a Bush republican:
“If you are a Trump supporter or member of his administration and aren’t willing to condemn his vulgar and mean spirited behavior every day, then i don’t want to hear what you have to say about a comedian,” Matthew Dowd wrote.

Edit: if you really want cringeworthy, look up Trump speaking at the 2016 Al Smith Dinner. That makes Wolf look like a comedic genius.

I hear that the Dotard is screaming from the Twitter Toilet that Greg Gutfield should host the WHCD. Oh, please do! After all, Gutfield is such a great comedian that FoxNews puts him on at 10 PM EST on a Sunday night, which is where a news network would normally program a show like “Cooking With Ebola”.
I remember when, after Colbert’s smackdown of Bush in 2006, they had non-comedian and God-awful and incredibly overrated (for decades!) impressionist and Bush booster Rich Little host. The groans from the audience could be heard all the way in Pocatello, Idaho. Greg Gutfield would make Little’s performance look like top-flight Robin Williams.

I’ll bet April Ryan enjoyed Wolf’s performance. And well she should have, since I can imagine the kinds of things that a journalist like Ran - a real journalist - would love to say to Sanders after all of the lies she has spewed at those “press conferences” of hers.

I should have known this was coming . . . Andrea Mitchell just called for Wolf to apologize to Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Will that be accompanied by a call for Huckabee Sanders to apologize for all of her lies? For Trump to apologize for all of his lies and derogatory remarks about everyone?

this outrage against Michelle Wolfe is sheer hypocrisy on the part of the Republicans. Supporters of Trump, Trump who every single day sometimes. several times a day insults who ever he wants, in any manner he wants, saying whatever he wants. Disabled Americans, members of the Judiciary, women. war heros, our Allies. The Democrats. The Poor. black people all minorities In a manner as raunchy and gross and crude as Ms, Wolfe. One exception :smile: he is the President of the United States. voted into office by a cult of haters who like his LIES. give me a break. They give him a pass but not a free speech comedian doing her Job

Just like Maggie Haberman, Andrea Mitchell has shown herself to be the kind of journalist she has always been.

Most of the people who are criticizing the performance of Michelle Wolf are the same people who were oh-so-shocked-and-concerned about poor, poor, defenseless, untouchable Barron Trump when comedian Kathy Griffin posed for a picture with a phony severed head of Donald Trump. “How will that poor child survive! Think of the deep psychological scars his now-damaged soul will struggle to heel!”
But I have not seen one - not ONE - of these same hypocritical motherfuckers crying their indignant tears when they learned that Donald Trump had been committing adultery against Barron’s mother immediately after she gave birth to him (and knowing Trump, probably during her pregnancy, too). His father cheated on his mother with a porn star, but our concerned media says not a word about poor, damaged Barron.
This just shows you how right and on-target Michelle Wolf really was in her criticisms.

She looks almost presentable in that pic! And I always had a feeling that those four daughters she always rails about and uses as political fodder had to be alien spawn hatched from eggs.
