Dave on the election

Fans of Chappelle’s Show host Dave Chappelle rejoiced on Friday whenSaturday Night Live announced the stand-up comedian would host its November 12th program with musical guest A Tribe Called Quest.” Yet their excitement quickly dwindled on Saturday after a report in the New York Observer, which is owned by Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, suggested the comedy icon’s surprise Friday night show at a New York club included praise for the Republican nominee and criticism of his opponent, Hillary Clinton.

Chappelle dedicated a significant portion of the 60-minute set at The Cutting Room to the infamous Access Hollywoodtape in which Trump boasted about his fame and sexual prowess with Billy Bush. According to the Observer, the comic suggested Clinton was the one who organized the tape’s release:

“What I heard on that tape was gross,” Chappelle said. “But the way I got to hear it was even more gross. You know that came directly from Hillary.” He stated this had put him off a candidate he had already known was “not right.” He likened voting for her to a hypothetical situation of actress Halle Berry breaking wind in his face during sexual relations. “I’m still going to go for it,” he said. “But I wish she hadn’t done that thing.


Sexual assault? It wasn’t. He said, ‘And when you’re a star, they let you do it.’ That phrase implies consent. I just don’t like the way the media twisted that whole thing. Nobody questioned it.”

That's not even that extreme of a comment, given that it is a comedy routine.

He is basically saying, I don't like Hillary but I still voted for her because Trump is worst, but Trump is giving no dambs during this campaign season, and it is kinda funny if you take a step back. Many people share the same feelings.

His comments on gay and transgender people are what he is catching a lil blowback from now.
 
Past his prime Chappelle on a show that hasn't been funny since Molly Shannon was calling herself a superstar. Oh and watered down Tribe too. Will watch.
 
Chappelle is always appreciated and Tribes new album is great.

Should be a good episode
