    Did you laugh at the watermelon joke?
    I didn't actually see any of his MSG stuff. Just the quotes.
    Did you chuckle to yourself at the watermelon-quote?
    No, it didn't sound funny as it was written. However, did you watch the Jon Stewart video? He includes a clip from the Tom Brady roast that should allow you to extend your moral crusade by at least another day.

    setting and context help, no? at a roast the shit talk is directly at specific individuals,  most fellow comedians. its expected.

    at a campaign rally? not so much. approved by staff and uploaded to prompters....
    Yes, completely agree with you. I have no clue why the campaign would book him to do a roast set and I have no clue why he would deliver a roast set at a campaign rally.
    in fact reports are they balked at reference to harris as a c*nt.....
    obscene mysogny is a hard no, but bigotry and racism is on brand?

    That 2 minute Jon Stewart clip isn't without it's merit, but I think the whole 19 minute segment is worth watching, including Jessica William's commentary at the end.

    There's a whole lot of gray area between Hinchliffe's routine being totally offensive and no big deal, especially considering the greater context of that rally and trump's anti-immigrant platform; that those particular comments are the singular focus is missing the forest for the trees IMO.

    the general rule should be if you are going to tell a joke at the expense of a marginalized community, you should probably workshop the joke in front of your friends that are of that community. if they laugh its funny, if not, maybe don't tell the joke.
    "You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry."  - Lincoln

    Yes I have seen it. And I don't think his comparison of Beyonce singing or not singing and having someone having to be racist is all that clever.

    Neither do I understand why you see racism as an integral part of the art of "roasting". Or comedy for that matter. Didn't Carlin elegantly speak about comedy and punching up, not punching down and denigrate people? 

    I imagine that you can have Beyonce speak or sing. And i imagine you can have a "roast comic" come in, and be clever and edgy but not be racist. 

    Maybe you and Stewart disagree. Maybe you need that racism.
    His throwaway Beyonce joke at the end is your focus? I was talking about the roast clip. Did you see all those brilliant people on stage laughing together and having a great time? A beautiful pastiche of our great multicultural society? It's possible to find happiness, my friend. It may seem impossible but it is possible.
    Yes, I saw those. 

    Seems to me by your answers, you do need racism in your comedy. Disappointing. Don't know how unexpected.

    Could be the next president of the United States:

    Later that month, Trump continued to goad North Korea through his tweets. But Kelly was more concerned about what Trump was saying privately, Schmidt reports.


    "What scared Kelly even more than the tweets was the fact that behind closed doors in the Oval Office, Trump continued to talk as if he wanted to go to war. He cavalierly discussed the idea of using a nuclear weapon against North Korea, saying that if he took such an action, the administration could blame someone else for it to absolve itself of responsibility," according to the new section of the book.

    Could it succeed? Will they get the chance to try it? Doesn't it disenfranchise voters?
