I thought "locker room talk" was no big deal, pretty common really.

“Sir, you attract more skinheads than free Rogaine,” the host continued. “You have more people marching against you than cancer. You talk like a sign-language gorilla that got hit in the head.” And then the kicker: “In fact, the only thing your mouth is good for is being Vladimir Putin’s **** holster.”



Stephen Colbert Demolishes Trump for Insulting

I think it's only a homophobic slur to people who are homosexual or have homosexual tendency.

To straight guys, that was a very funny joke.

Well he didn't push President Trump's buttons.
I mean, has Trump even mentioned it?
You think that didn't bother Trump?

Here's one for Colbert and his ilk: "When you insult the elected President and the office of the Presidency, you insult the people of the United States, our freedoms and the system upon which our government is founded. You promote yourself as being smarter than the millions who put him into office and all of the worthy opponents he defeated, while you denigrate the elective system upon which America was founded and operates.

You have not 'demolished' anything other than your own credibility and self-inflated sense of importance -- as you set aside all established standards of common decency and respect. Gloat while you are in the limelight, but, you are nothing more than a mediocre entertainer and lead nothing, but your own shadow.

You make no decisions and face no issues that influence anything beyond your own small, temporary circle of watchers. You will be long forgotten, while the President whom you so belligerently publicly insult will have an enormous influence on the world and country --- and will be long remembered. Enjoy your 15-minutes of fame ... then slink off into the bitter darkness where you belong.
Wrong. The ability to criticize our elected officials is the fundamental principle this country was founded on, and is one of the reasons why we live in a free democracy and not a dictatorship. I suspect i know which you support.
