#EndorseThis: Enraged By Trump? You’re Not As Angry As Luther

#EndorseThis: Enraged By Trump? You’re Not As Angry As Luther

Does everyone remember “Luther,”  the Keegan-Michael Key character who served these past four years as President Obama’s “anger translator”? That hilarious presidential alter ego is back for one final appearance with Key’s partner Jordan Peele as POTUS, delivering a pre-inaugural message to the American people from the Oval Office.

Needless to say, Luther is cosmically pissed off by the advent of Donald Trump. He’s in orbit and “anger” doesn’t begin to describe his supernova outrage.

Key’s performance is as funny as anything about this political catastrophe will ever be. Do not miss it.  

 

Stephen Colbert Checks In With ‘The African American’ Delegate At The RNC

Stephen Colbert Checks In With ‘The African American’ Delegate At The RNC

Donald Trump’s Republican Party has had some… trouble reaching out to black voters.

Case in point: ZERO percent of black respondents to a NBC News-Wall Street Journal-Marist in Ohio and Pennsylvania — and just 6 percent nation-wide — said they supported Trump’s bid for the presidency.

Or, just take a look at Donald Trump: He has tweeted out fake crime statistics from white supremacists, has a habit of calling black people “thugs,” and, decades ago, took out a full-page ad in the New York Times and three other New York City newspapers calling for the executions of five minors — the youngest was 13 at the time — falsely accused of rape and murder.]

Or consider Trump’s frequent use of terms like “Law and Order” and “America First” — the former arose in the ’60s in response to urban rioting, the latter was the name of a nativist campaign in the 1940s that urged politicians to appease Hitler.

Well, Stephen Colbert managed to get in touch with one black Republican delegate who didn’t seem to have a problem with any of that.
