Jim Gaffigan unloads on Donald Trump
If the job of a comedian is to make you laugh so you’ll hear the truth, then Jim Gaffigan is one of the best. But when Trump launched a psychotic attack on the elderly protester who had been assaulted by the Buffalo police, Gaffigan turned things around on Trump.
In response to Trump’s tweet, Jim Gaffigan posted this: “Disgusting! A disgusting comment from a horrible heartless fool. How embarrassing and sad! Someone should tell Trump to stick to comedy.” Based on the replies, most of his followers agreed with him – but some of them clearly didn’t.
In response, Gaffigan laid down some truth: “Expecting equal justice and being against police brutality is NOT “being political”. It’s called basic empathy. I’m sorry if my opinions on these things are “too radical” for a couple of you. Go in peace.” Then he added, “Also Trump is a monster!”
