Trump Accepts the Nomination: A Closer Look 

I wish I could like your comment more than once.. three times even. :-)

hmmm... now where have I seen that comment before...? ;)

sorry ted, math :P haha

I want to like him but I just hate him so much I'm struggling here

Respect Cruz a lot more than Bernie "bend the knee" Sanders, when push came to shove he sold out his principles and his supporters and endorsed Hillary

Yeah I hate both but I respect he had the nads to do that

If only Sanders had the same balls. But he sold out and endorsed Hillary.

He had to in order to be able to speak at the Democratic Convention.

chaoticB81​ like her or not, Hillary isn't nearly as vile as trump. She didn't slander bernie's family like trump did to cruz, and her speeches aren't crammed with hatred and racism. The democratic nomination was largely fought on policy not rhetoric, fear and showmanship. Comparing the two isn't helpful. It's necessary for bernie to back Hillary for the sake of unity, and even though he didn't win, he has prompted real change.

That's right..stand up for what you believe. With out hat you are nothing but a hack. I would never vote for Cruz but I do respect him for that.

They are racist fuckwits.

Romney was a normal guy. He was built in a factory to be the most normal white male to ever exist.

McCain and Romney were normal

That's why they lost.

To be fair, some of them tried and ended leaving the GOP. I think a lot of ppl vote for him as a form of protest. They want to express how much they hate things that are happening now and don't think about what it means to have Scrooge McDonald Duck as president.

never, the guy is still a fucking asshole

So true, he dosn't tap his daughters ass

+DJ Williams His daughters are under ten, that'd be weird. I think the Zodiac is capeable of doing anything like this though…

He's like a dude in a cartoon who's the "useless" member of a team and his only skill is being fat, but then in the end, surprise!! a fat person is just what they need to win the big fight! Yey! Cruz got to use his superpower, which is being loudly hated by large groups of people!

+Mauricio Merida...Yeah, kinda funny how that happens. The same happened for me with Marco Rubio a week after his "small hands" comment, because of Trump's bombastic continual replies. I sense an 'Achilles Heel' here...

One of the best for sure. That part where Seth recites Trump's response is priceless.

I totally agree

"Don't call it a comeback! I been here for years!" In all honesty, at first it seemed like he's ironing out his wrinkles after being the longest running Weekend Update anchor along with being the second longest running SNL cast member. But he definitely found his footing the moment he sat down.

I agree..better everyday

Seth is the best.

I pity them. I really do.

Sebastian, you are probably not familiar with sarcasm. My original comment is very sarcastic. But I do pity ignorant bigots for actually believing that the world is such a horrible place for them (which we as rational, empathetic people know it is usually not).

Lena R Every politician has to be somewhat dramatic, he's not over the top though - he states facts. I pity those like you who have to try and patronise others with opposing political beliefs in order to make yourself feel happier with your own inteligence and view point which you obviously have little evidence to support. Where in this speech was Trump wrong?

Oh, pardon me. I misread your first comment. Opposing political beliefs are not the problem. If we were to discuss the benefits and short-comings of privatized services compared to universal state-provided ones; if we were to discuss the benefits and threats of restrictions of personal liberty to prevent crime; if we were to discuss religious freedom and its consequences for other basic human rights and equality; if we were to discuss income equality and the importance or danger of a focus on economic growth -> then we can have a rational discussion. And I am happy to do so. Unfortunately many people are not. Those are the ones I feel sorry for. They are blinded by fear and in-group biases. Trump does not state facts. He states opinions, which he sells as though they were facts. For example: - the US have one of the highest GDP (although wealth equality is not as high as in other places) - how can a multi millionaire speak about the darkest times for the US etc...? Who do they think are the ones that take away their money/power/luck? The US is one of the most powerful global negotiators. - Trump's fiscal plan is ridiculous (unless you are wealth, then good for you!) and would certainly not benefit "the poor" or any non-rich group - global terrorism is not a "muslim" problem. In fact, there is not even a clear correlation between strict islamic beliefs and terrorism. Banning or suggesting to ban a group of people simply due to their religion is pure bigotry. - similar problematic are his overgeneralizations of hispanic people. - I find it highly problematic when constitutional and democratic values are questioned unreasonably, without improvement in mind, but destruction; for example fair trail (critizism of Clinton). - his way of avoiding any meaningful discussion by demeaning his opponents (crooked Hillary, lying Ted, Jeb Bush...), by questioning their proficiency ("you would not understand")... this all is a step back from the civil values we applaud most in liberal societies.

Lol I fucking love Colbert, by far my favorite

Christopher Huffman i used to, changed since he got on the clinton payroll.

This week, he got Jon Stewart to come out from retirement and deliver another scathing attack against Fox News... and it was awesome!!!

I agree. Late Night is the best thing on, well, late night TV. It's taken the spot of Stewart's Daily Show or Colbert Report. Colbert is pretty unwatchable these days. Though his show Our cartoon President was masterful and unfairly maligned.

Don't cry... Craft! (This seems so unnecessary)

Carolina Pena You are not reading the same comments I do, then. People are saying Hillary will start WWIII. They're far from saying it won't happen. I agree with the Alien vs Predator jokes people make- No matter who wins, we lose. Except we did this to ourselves, because as we all know, humans are the biggest monsters of them all.

Carolina Pena No, I don't. But there's plenty of people who think she will. Hell, I don't know if TRUMP will. I don't think either is going to be as bad as we're dreading. I think we're going in for four really horrible years either way, but it's not going to be as bad as people think.

Sometimes I want to do the Nelson laugh and point and say "HA HA your country is so screwed!" And then I realize I LIVE IN THIS COUNTRY!

Im right there with you

"L G... B T Q..." I'm firing that teleprompter! Why, why doesn't it go faster??

Funny way of saying i'm a person of low moral fiber. But i get what you mean.

I do not like Cruz at all. He is a bigot and dangerous. But I do agree that belittling one's wife (partner) is going too far. Not everything is forgivable.

Woof woof woof!

+Heather Spoonheim got that right

+Heather Spoonheim GRRRRRRRrrrrrrr...

Best joke of the season!

I dislike Chris Christie so much, but a lame joke about how he's fat is unimpressive. Yeah, all right, the dude is a fatty.

Spoutnik Did you actually follow me just to insult me? Well 1' the NATO is a military defensive alliance so the migration is irrelevant. Second in Italy there is actually a pretty good relationship with immigrates. So please relax man, you look silly.

+Spoutnik not migrants Russians!

***** not really, replying to some1 else and I saw your dumbass comment and just couldn't resist

Spoutnik By saying something not related? And France is part of the Nato too so...why do you think this doesn't affect you? Just because you didn't win in the other discussion don't start a war here just for some petty revenge.

+Francesco A Don't mind the Russians, they are so sensitive about everything.

call it whatever you want it was hilarious!!

BURN! That's gotta burn! hahaha!

+Paul S - The irony in that post if you're a Trump supporter is hilarious. Believe me.

not necessarily! It's funny because Trump is a buffoon!

I love it when he gets to say things like...... "No one says that" "No one was thinking that" "No one knows what you're talking about" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Half an hour later and I'm still laughing

Thanks Jimbo. I finally get the joke. Thought he said booze (cos he mentioned an alcoholic in the beginning) but he said boos. Genius!

+Omatmani that IS the joke. double entendre

@@Omatmani LOL I didn't catch that at first. I tell you what though this video is even better watching it 5 years later

#makemyunderwheredryagain

HMSBlackPrince Only if they are willing to clean my shorts :-)

What would people in Somalia be watching the speech on?

Peter Piper Some have TVs, and internet - not many though I suspect.

Surprisingly it has cheaper and better internet services than many countries on the continent...easy to set-up company, not much taxes same with telephones, some industries thrive under chaos/weak governance.

Lol, it's even worse than that, it is like a primary school reader level mentality: Oh look, look Sally, look look, see Spot, see Spot Sally, see Spot run, Spot can run, run Spot Run

This is more how a kid just learning to talk would tell a story... Don't insult our beginner's level textbooks ;D

Got it.. More plants, Big plants. Not apartments. Trumps simplicity is lost on some. When you stop to consider the current Obama plan. Offshore everything and build more apartments for the Muslims and Mexicans.

And to think, it was only 8 years ago when we were laughing/crying at Sarah Palin's answers to questions and thinking "no one aiming for such a high position could ever be this bad again right?"

“In terms of grammar, none of the presidents and presidential candidates could compare with Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address - an admittedly high standard, with grammar well above the 10th grade level,” the summary read. “The current candidates generally had scores between 6th and 7th grades, with Trump just below 6th grade level. President Bush scored at a 5th grade level.”

Go wash your mouth out with soap.

Why? Because he broke a promise?

No offense, but you've obviously never lived in Texas...

No because he showed some balls and let himself being bulling or bend over. I would not have for him, support liberal views be clear. But a pledge was a stupid idea to start with, just as voting blindly for someone for his claim political affiliation when you disagree with most of his messages and rhetoric. Not so long ago most republican party leaders did not approved of Trump as a candidate. It seems that winning election has become more important than actually governing the head of the GOP decided to bend over even if it means the party is turning to some far right aberration. The best outcome we can hope for this election is 4 more years of gridlock in Washington, great isn't it? It is really time for the two party to disappear.

He stumbled into the nominación because he and hks group of white supremasist and idiots repeled al other candidates.

go back to mexico

Spoutnik were you born with a genetic mutation where tour anís and vocal cords were exchanged because it sure looks like it.

oscar alonso are you high on drugs?

Spoutnik Thanks for your confirmation.

What! They are great at their job. Theater. Now if you want them to actually stop terrorists then, no, they are terrible at doing their job.

I contracted brain cancer from reading this joke

that's what happens when you read your speech for the first time off a teleprompter 😂

Have you bothered to go to his site?

I hope this is bait. Trump has lain out several plans. From things to boost both our a foreign and domestic economies, to making sure our veterans get the proper medical care they've fought for. Seriously, stop watching the mainstream media. All they do is pick and choose the worst parts of Trump because they are literally trying with every fiber of their globalist, NWO beings to elect their sHillary... Trump is far from perfect, but his flaws have nothing to do with running a country. Hillary has proven time and again her incompetence, she doesn't deserve this office.

Choose lesser evil;)

+Sanni Epstein a vote for trump is a vote for WW3

+Reed Cornwell Trump has no plan.. and anything looking close to it is absurd

Showbiz and war are our only industries.

Says someone that has never left the US and does not have a clue about the outside world.

Me too, didn't expect that would ever happen!

Aaaaannnnnd 4 years later......

cause we are batshit crazy.

Because of freedumb.

Because someone didn't take our keys away

Because the Republican party mismanaged its internal class politics for decades, and in trying to drum up opposition for Obama, accidentally got the growing Republican base of whites without a college education to reveal why they *really* joined the Republican party.

I can see the Democrats... biding their time for a little while longer, maybe waiting until September. Then they start revealing the real Trump. Showing how he has built his wealth by ripping off Americans and small businesses, time and again. There is a long list of people his companies have told, paraphrasing, 'Either take less than the contract we agreed to, or sue us. Good luck, because we have the BEST lawyers. And they know the best words.' It may sound like a joke, but it's not. Trump University is just one of his many schemes to rip off Americans. Very few can honestly look at what he's done throughout his career and think that he cares about the middle class, the lower class or Americans, in general. Those who won't agree probably have their heads so far up Trump's backside that they can't see anything but his next bowel movement. This is part of the reason why Never Trump exists. I'm not saying the other side is all roses and sunshine, but electing a statue as President would be a far better option than electing Trump. Unless you are a billionaire like him. Then he's got your back.

Of course he's never been to a 3rd world country he can't build there so he has no reason to go there. He's a sales man with a sales pitch

Just because you own your own plane doesn't mean you no longer have to use air ports.

+DarkShroud24 yeah but he isn't going thru TSA or walking thru the airport with all the non billionaires. And btw when you have your own jet you don't fly out of JFK there are private airfields for rich people. So you are wrong. Good day sir

Upgrading America's infrastructure has been a major policy point for a lot of economists. It's a win/win from a macroeconomic perspective. But Trump has no clue about economics, no way someone that odious and incoherent should have so much press

It will be no care. That madman doesn't care about Americans. He's a sociopath and only cares about himself.

Trump care would be poor people dying from disease bc their president is a billionaire that doesn't care about the poor and doesn't understand their conditions of living

And Hillary does care?

trump approved doctors will have only small hands

you've got to be 9 and above.

Old Man Crews Try 2020...

@@NoorAnomaly lets hope in a few years we may both look back and laugh.... Due to world peace and world democracy being the daily news, and no more of this current world shenanigans

Yep, yep yep yep yep. re-watching it in 2021 and Seth's "there might not be one" rings far too true.

i think he'll quit before the election and launch a tv network

ezrazski And call it OWN because its his own network

The WHOLE thing is a reality show to Trump I think.

you must not get out much

I’m here in 2021 and was thinking the same thing.

"comedians" like Myers ARE the media

It aged like cottage cheese left out in the sun

It is pretty great. 👍🏻

It almost makes me cry...if I bothered to care about this world, anymore...

I really agree. I dont care anymore! This election is dumb as it is. It's not fair to us, it's not fair to them. I'm just walking away from this. It's dumb. Who would care about this so much....

fear God's wrath. That is the beginning of wisdom. But have no fear of Donald Trump.

David Morris The exit is that way.
