Kathy Griffin wishes she was capable of the sophisticated satirical skills that superimposing Trump's head on a video requires.

I don’t think she’s funny either

The video wasn’t a showcase of high talent but it was amusing (but I had t seen the movie)

Either way, and I think we’re probably on the same page, we got real **** to worry about instead of bad comedy. If it hurts Trump fine but actually I’d rather we left comedians alone (funny or not) as a matter of principle. That goes for racist **** and so on.

I think there's a new Democratic debate tonight with the candidates. Should be good.

Outside of comedic criticism (as in "Dane Cook is painfully unfunny") I agree.

Beheading Trump was the funniest thing Griffin ever did.

The perfect punchline would be her getting waterboarded at Gitmo.

They should give Rosanne her show back too. That planet of the apes tweet was funnier than her actual material.

**Frownland** · 10-15-2019, 06:12 PM

Nah she's more unintentionally funny.

~~jwb~~ · 10-15-2019, 06:15 PM

She's lying. But **** it. Bring her back.

If jussie gets to fake a hate crime and doesn't get fired, Rosanne should be able to be racist on Twitter and lie about it.

JWB is the most pro-comedian, anti-comedy mother****er ever.
