    Pretty much like he was at the exact moment the dinner was going on.

    That event is basically a roast - you show up, you could get roasted. If Trump weren't a worthless baby he would show up.

    Somebody speaking truth to Sarah Sanders where she can't respond strikes me as awesome.

    She should feel way more ashamed every day when she gets up in the AM and realizes what she has been doing for the last year.

    You don't roast a person you despise, it just comes off as cruel and awkward. You roast someone you are friends with, this way the recipient knows its all in good fun and out of love. Thats why the old Dean Martin Roasts worked. HEre's one of the best roasts of all time, coming from a place of love.

    Not worth the outrage. Who cares? Trump who is more crass and insulting to many people at events where it isn't the norm to make fun of people has the least room for complaining. His supporters have no room to complain because obviously, they support those kinds of crass, rude, and crude jabs people.

    I didn't think about this. While I enjoyed the savage takedown, I agree with this. I noticed I was watching the video through my fingers, lol.

    Anybody thinking Sanders deserves an apology is delusional af. Her and her father are POS hypocrites that like to parrot the words of Christ..just not follow them.

    Apparently this made big news. This is what you call “overplaying your hand”. All you had to do was do nothing until November. Now SHS and KC look like sympathetic figures.

    So you think the comics who did the Trump roast in 2011 were coming from a place of love?

    You're using an obsolete definition dude. Roasts now are just famous people telling mean jokes written by someone else about other famous people. Pretty much seems like that's what this was.

    If you don't like that, that's fine. I don't particularly care about the WH Correspondents Dinner, and since most Trump supporters no doubt went into it expecting the administration to get trashed, why get triggered? Seems like a waste of energy.

    This is what you call very bad concern trolling.

    Being funny without being cruel may become one more lost art in US Merica.

    I just don't see what Wolf accomplished beyond getting herself some pub and clicks.

    Probably just one more dent in the fantasy of a blue wave. ... "oh wow, they really are elitists laughing at the rest of us. Ma, let's go vote GOP after all."

    If jokes at a roast are what makes someone vote for Trump then they were a lost cause to begin with. I can't stand it when liberals p***y foot around with scumbags like Trump and his goons. These people are the worst of the worst and I'm not tip toeing around any of them. Sarah Sanders is just as big a liar as Sean Spicer, just because she's a woman doesn't mean we don't call her out for it. Give me a break.

    Trump can handle this but not some softballs from an unknown comedian.

    Michelle Wolf is 100% white. I wonder how many people know that.

    No such thing. We all have varying degrees of melanin. Terms like "white" and "black" are just contrived constructs to help support racism.

    How does her routine compare with Colbert’s roast in front of W, in terms of meanness?

    Just watched it. Totally surprised by the reaction, it was completely tame. I think she is typically pretty bad on the Daily Show, but she absolutely knocked this out of the park.

    After Obama made fun of him in 2012, getting visibly butt hurt, Trump is too traumatized to show his face two years in a row. What a puss. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
