Yes, she was crass and rude and raunchy.

[boston bean]

But the president of the united states is that every single fucking day in person and on twitter. It’s a fucking real life nightmare!! Not a comedy skit.

[RandySF]

1. Women are not allowed to be crass, rude or raunchy

Or even be president.

[a kennedy]

2. Sad isn't it?? It just doesn't come across well when a woman does it.

and I feel bad about it.

[quartz007]

22. Female comedian on my last cruise was

using f-bombs every other sentence, in the adult comedy lounge, and it was hilarious coming from a 60 something black woman. I did not hear any boo's from the largely white crowd. Actually she got many laughs. So women can be crass without a problem.

[Maraya1969]

31. Some people are saying Stephen Colbert's take on Bush was just great satire

I'm saying you could have cut the air with a lead pipe while he was talking. I don't see much difference except for the damn way women are not given the same freedom men are.

[pansypoo53219]

39. find the NPR fresh air interview w/ colbert. the room mike did not pick up the laughter.

very illuminating.

[Doodley]

3. She told it like it is. Why does it take a comedian to call out their lies and racism?

[greatlaurel]

5. Exactly!

Michelle Wolf was great! "How broke is he?".................

[iluvtennis]

28. +++++ Agree, Exactly

[ecstatic]

4. Looks like the media is butt hurt because they were called out

for giving us trump, and now profiting off of this train wreck presidency. At least on msnbc. I haven't checked CNN yet.

[greatlaurel]

6. That was great.

Michelle rocked it.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. I didn't much appreciate how she said Ted Kennedy murdered a woman.

Sorry, she just wasn't funny. You're supposed to stab your victims with a rapier, not bludgeon them with a shovel.

[boston bean]

10. There were many parts I did not find funny.

Mostly the f bombs for the setting were not appropriate. The jokes about womens physical appearance were off the mark.

Yet there is so much danger with the real crass ass that sits in the oval and his lying defenders causing real damage to millions. I just can’t get all worked up about it.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. We don't improve the situation by becoming what they are.

[boston bean]

14. it was a comedy skit. He is president. I don't think me caring more about what he does

than one comedy skit makes me like him.

In fact I think it is the opposite.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

15. Comedy skits are supposed to be funny.

Standing on a stage and dropping F-bombs and making fun of a woman's looks and accusing Ted Kennedy of murder wasn't funny. Stephen Colbert was able to skewer Bush brilliantly and hilariously without being gross and crude - this mess wasn't even close. Just saying mean things about people I don't like doesn't impress me.

[boston bean]

17. Did you read what I wrote? I am pretty sure I never called her funny.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

19. You said it was a comedy skit so I assumed you meant it was funny, or at least

that it was supposed to be. If it wasn't funny, why call it a comedy skit, unless it was a comedy skit that bombed?

[boston bean]

20. Because it was a comedy skit whether you or I find any of it funny or not.

[EffieBlack]

21. I agree 100 percent

Some of it just wasn’t funny, some of it was mean and petty, some was unnecessarily raunchy - I watched it with my parents who kept asking, “What dis she say?” and I wasn’t about to repeat it.

But whenever she landed, she stuck it.

[Scurrilous]

25. This was more rapier like.

From National Lampoon.

[helmedon1974]

29. That's too clever for most Americans.

The current American mentality requires blunt instruments. Also, Mitch McConnell does need a neck circumcision.
Seems jokes are funny as long as they don't offend anyone. I didn't find any of her jokes inappropriate. Language, maybe for network TV. But that just furthers my contention that Americans are prissy, privileged brats for the most part. Her manner is more suited to a club or, well, an HBO special. If you look at British or French TV they don't allow language, even nudity, to restrict their right to free speech.
Sometimes we have to say the ugly, unpopular things to make people pay attention. Look at all the attention she's getting, and what for what and who she is. A dark skinned woman who's loud and confident.

[Lint Head]

8. Wolf was fucking prrfect!!

[kpete]

9. Plane trip home...

[vercetti2021]

11. Exactly

No mercy should be given

[dalton99a]

13. Her firepower was direct and effective.

[samplegirl]

16. Trump is the epitome of crass

And offensive everyday. The Ivanka diaper Jeanie joke should be enough to put him over the edge.

[Raine1967]

18. She was awesome.

I won't lie. I loved that Sarah looked really uncomfortable.

[Tipperary]

23. Who? I assume this is something to do with the dinner, but I saw none of it.

[SharonClark]

24. You may like what she said but that doesn't make her funny.

She laughs at her own lines.
She's a little too Rosanne-ish for me.

[CentralMass]

26. I'm sorry I missed it.

[thbobby]

27. Giving trump and his administration Hell

is the job of every sane American. Michelle Wolf did it her way. I do it my way and am as vulgar or worse. She did great. And as misogynistic as trump is, it will get to him. There is no difference in her profanity and any of ours. Except she had a television audience. I liked what she said, how she said it, and loved Sander's reaction. Michelle, I applaud you!

[dalton99a]

30. +1

[Scurrilous]

32. K&R

[yourmovemonkey]

33. I thought it was crass, but I also think she's a genius.

Any one of those crude comments could have been a Trump tweet. I think she's being a mirror. Why should Sanders and Conway be offended being spoken of in the same way their boss talks about other women? Trump uses gutter talk all the time, and the media serves it to the masses.

[Belligerent]

34. Missed opportunity.

I prefer class to crass, and clever to vulgar.

I also prefer comedy to be funny.

[JustAnotherGen]

40. It was girl talk from

The cocktail lounge. What's the problem?

What's not funny about a play on "Yo mamma" jokes?
What's not funny about Sarah who told reporters:

https://m.

Getting her ass handed to her on a platter?

Wolf is a comedian not the Press Secretary. It makes sense if she tells us to get a sense of humor.

[Belligerent]

41. Comedians are funny.

Obama did a better job, without being rude or vulgar.

[Cha]

35. Trump threatens to 'close down the country' over funding for border wall
