  • donald actually said that?that he had a good relationship with "the blacks"?if trump refers to african americans as "the blacks",then meyers is correct in casting doubt on donald trump's interpretation of racial harmony and equality.

  • There's something with this guy's hair.

  • Trump looked botoxed. I've never seen him so fixed in his expression.

  • Love trumps face!!!!

  • 59 People are Donald Trump...?

  • the fox will eat it = was the best part!

  • Donald you mad bro?

    *sings* you maaad! you maaad!

    what im understanding here is that they invited him just so they can make a fool at him

    thats messed up putting him oon the spot

    obama should of been the bigger person since hees our president

  • That was a cheap shot and very unprofessional. But I know one thing...you do NOT want to pick a fight with Donald Trump. He'll bounce back...guaranteed.

  • You wrote that... "You do NOT want to pick a fight with Donald Trump. He'll bounce back...guaranteed."

    Donald Trump is a midget against THE GOVERNMENT.

    Sure Donald will kick your ass because you're a nobody. You're nothing. If you died today no one would really miss you except maybe your mother. So sure Donald will run over someone like you.

    But he's no match for the Government.

    Barack Obama could make life hell for Donald Trump by having 3 letters investigate him. I.R.S

  • @spcoastie unprofessional? i guess Obama would have to show some type of professional courtesy to other politicians but how can he show professional courtesy to someone that isn't even in the same profession? lol Trump is no politician, he should definitely let the big boys handle business

  • @jorman67 Watch a Lupe Fiasco video? Best reply to an 'Argument' ever. You win sir. I tip my hat to you, i'm gonna watch that now.

  • Epic!!!

  • I love Donald Trump, he'd be a great Pres

  • @jorman67 Did I miss something? I just said it was funny.

  • hahahahahahaha Trump got mad

  • @jorman67 Nope.

  • @jorman67 did you really have to write an essay?! lol!

  • ANYONE could do a far better job who didn't push a socialist, tax and spend, tax and spend, agenda. Raising taxes on the wealthy" is just a page out of karl Marx and it doesn't help the economy. Supporting Reverse Discrimination doesn't help qualified people get jobs that they deserve for working hard in Downsizing our mlitary just creates more unemployment and hurts the local economy, raising the debt ceiling again after this president voted against it when Bush was in charge isn't logical.

  • wowwwwwwww i will fuckin seriously

    snap out and turn AL QAIDA on america if they continue to do this to trump

    please spread the word on how important it is

    THAT DONALD TRUMP is elected for PRESIDENT!....

  • Burn, burn, burn, FREAKIN BURN!

  • Trump is a big pouting baby.

    Laugh a little you right wing war mongering capitalistic swine. Laugh a little.

  • meyers is the funniest of all the brothers seth.including:seth green,seth rogen,seth mcfarlane...

  • let be honest now Obama is funnier than Seth, I just laughed my off when he humiliated trump.

  • @DarKnSilenT obama didn't write those jokes.

  • i would love to walk up to trump and say. "you mad?"

  • LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • beast!!

  • why all the talk about welfare, white Anglo-Americans make up for the most receiving welfare compared to any other minority group in the U.S, despite what fox and every republican brainwash people to believe. Thats called escape goating, same thing the nazi's did to the jews, blame the underdog for everything, but if everyone knew this there wouldnt be a discussion about welfare, if Obama was white no one would ask for a damn birth certificate.

  • hahahaha

  • Donald Trumps wants to see Osama's death certificate.

  • Damn, I hope Trump runs for president. I really, really do. 

  • @SkullVodka

    Part of me wants to see him run for the presidency as well... so I can see him use up millions of dollars and watch him fail. He's more for entertainement value, like Sarah Palin. I hope the GOP endorse him. I hope he choses Sarah Palin as his running mate.

    However, the better use of his millions of dollars would be to help the devastated South rebuild.

  • AW SNAP

  • Trump got PWNED!!!! LMAO :))))

    This what happens to an @sshole who thinks his shiAt doesn't stink!

  • u mad doggie?????

  • hahahahaha Fuck trump!!!! fucking making America into a joke!

  • oooooh u mad!

  • Let's hope this dinner helped deflate Trumps ego a bit.

  • Dude, no one caresa bout that anymore. I had nothing to do with Slavery, or Discrimination, or whatever. NONE of US DID. this stupid liberal justification to 'make up' for past wrongs is punishing us in the present for somehting we had NOTHING to do with! If you're a human being as you supposedly say you are, you should know that two wrongs DO NOT make a right. but if you want to give up your job to some one just becuase they are a minority,I highly encourage you to do so.

  • @3dartistguy I feel sorry that you don't have a job. I know deep inside you are a good person and not a racist and thank you for serving this country as you claim. But don't act like a girl and blame others for your misfortune. Stop crying reverse discrimination, your skills may not be better than that "minority" who got the job. Focus on improving yourself and honing your skills in your craft and things should fall in place for you. The more you blame the less time you have to improve yourself.

  • Why shouldn't I blame Reverse Discrimination for my lot in life when that is the exact cause? Employers ARE required by law that this adminstration supports to seek out minorities just to fill racial quotas, and why, to make up for the wrongs of the past that I had nothing to do with! Im sorry you don't want to hear this, but it is the truth. This adminstration doesn't care about the violation of civil rights for whites because they think two wrongs make a right. If they did, they'ed repeal AA!

  • @3dartistguy you can continue to cry reverse discrimination until you turn blue but nothing will happen. If you want to change the law, access the proper channels through lawyers, congress men etc. Man up and do something about it. Just dont' do something stupid like commiting violent crimes. If you want to get a job, continued hunting for one and improve your skills. Don't give up. The media arts industry is not in demand at the moment and it's hard to find jobs in it. I C your frustration.

  • I am a peaceful man. I don't believe in violence of any kind. I protest using my vote. I will never, ever vote for the Democratic party as long as they continue to support this racist policy that denies me employment just beause I do not fill a government mandated racial quota. Ifts hard to get a job when employers are only looking to hire people based on their race and gender and not what should matter-their qualifications for that job. Maybe someday the Supreme court will act to end it.

  • @3dartistguy dude if you can get on the internet and write a cohesive thought then you certainly can UPGRADE your skills to be more marketable and competitive...just a thought!

  • likewise

  • @3dartistguy assuming you are right and are a victim of this "reverse discrimination" what is the likelihood it will apply to many companies? I can see it happening on one, but 2? 3? 5?10? how many companies did you apply for? If reverse discrimination exists universally then all white people will be jobless.

    I'm just saying life may not be fair... but there is hope.

    Can we truly get rid of racial discrimination all together? Probably not.

    AA helped discriminated minorities.

  • And now AA helps discriminate against qualified whites...That stupid racist law applies to all employers, not just one. Again, as I said, race and gender isn't relevant and no one should be given preferential treatment. We live in an EQUAL society. You only deserve what you earn, and I have earned my place and now Im being denied the fruits of my labors beause of a racist, unfair, discriminatory law called Affirmative action.

  • @3dartistguy I don't think its fair that you call supporters of AA "racists" Would you refer to John F. Kennedy as a racist? JFK signed the Executive Order 10925 which contained "affirmative action" in 1961.

  • Not true. Richard Nixon started Affirmative Action. John F Kennedy said often that a person's race, religion, national origin, creed, age are not relevant.Kennedy also said that he didn't want the talents of any American to go to waste, like mine are right now because of Affirmative Action. It is a racist policy, to be sure, its government stantioned reverse discrimination, thats why it should be repealed. it isn't fair or needed or very smart either. two wrongs do not make a right.

  • @3dartistguy Affirmative action is rooted in something positive that helps less advantaged people. that's it.

  • Im not any more advantaged by anyone else and in fact, since employers have a requirement by law to hire a certain amount of minoriites, whether they are qualified or not, they have more advantage than me, and thats not fair, so its not a positive thing to deny someone a jon opportunity who worked hard for it just because they do fill a racial or gender quota. What good is it to an employer to hire someone who isn't qualified for that job?

  • @3dartistguy Maybe they have more advantages NOW, but what about the last 200 years????

    Your perception only includes the present not the past. You couldnt give a crap about anyone else past or present. Only what is fair to you. What if you couldnt get ANY job because you were black, or brown...

    thank fully laws and other things were changed about society. I guess you know NOW what it feels like for thousands of people for over a hundered years what discrimination feels like.

  • Two wrongs DO NOT make a right. If there is anyone who should be punished for the wrongs of the past, it should be the people who did those things in the past. To punish one generation for the wrongs of another generation that had nothing to do with those wrongs is just beyond ludercrus. My parents, or grandparents didn't have it any easier than anyone else. There is no such thing as white privledge and yes, i don't give a crap about the wrongs of the past! The future is what I care about

  • @3dartistguy this is why you are not a politician. and I thank god.

  • that is why the country is in such a mess because if I was president or in the congress, Affirmative action and welfare would BOTH be history... and again, and if you can't see that two wrongs don't make a right, than you're even dumber than i thought. Again, to punish one generation for the wrongs of another is beyond ludercrus. i had nothing to do with slavery or discrimination, so why should I suffer for soemthing I had nothing to do with? This country would be run a lot better if I was!

  • @3dartistguy it's sad that you should see AA as a punitive measure. Do you honestly think JFK signed the EO as a way to punish white folks? Before JFK signed the EO there was racial discrimination during employment. AA was signed into action to get rid of racial discrimination that prevented minorities from obtaining & keeping jobs.

    A question you can pose is whether we STILL need AA. To answer that you must first answer the question, is racial discrimination gone? Can we completely erase it?

  • @geishasecrets Ok, I will indulge your whining about those two features of our democracy.

    Perhaps welfare could be reformed to remove the obvious abusers...but removing all opportunity from parts of society that would benefit from such things as affirmative action and welfare only creates a bigger divide from the rich and the poor. And makes for an unproductive less competitive society compared to the rest of the world.

    An educated society has less crime and it takes decades 2 achieve.

  • @xpez yes along those lines one may argue AA benefits society in that it gives otherwise discriminated minorities jobs so they won't have to rely on welfare which can be a financial drain in society. To put it in a logical sequence:

    elliminate AA -->, decrease job opportunities for disenfranchised minorities--> increase in demand for

    welfare reliance ---> increase in taxation by the govt to meet demands.

    Thus eliminate AA ---> increase in taxes.

    BTW I am NOT a product of AA okay?

  • @3dartistguy the beauty of the internet is you can look up stuff. Try googling affirmative action.

    JFK signed an EO containing affirmative action in 1961.

  • Affirmative action was first established in Executive Order 10925, which was signed by President John F. Kennedy on March 6, 1961 and required government contractors to "not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, creed, color, or national origin" as well as to "take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin".

  • It shouldn't be a challenge for Seth to write five more bits for SNL this Saturday. Greatness here.

  • outstanding!

  • This is Phenomenal

  • Was this a Donald Trump celebrity "Roast"? Brutal, and beautiful. Seth, you are a god.

  • Oh SNAP!

  • lol! now that was funny....I needed that! And Donald deserved it! 

  • Trump looks so displeased with every joke! I'd love to be there and ask trump:

    U mad bro?

  • @Hakageryu Hahahahhaa hilarious!

  • hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • the pageant one was highlarious

  • i hate uncomfortable laughs. They sound like a mix of boos and laughs.

    Just laugh like you want to god damnit!

  • Comment removed

  • @TheMistressCherie Talking about being an adult, learn to laugh a little. The world isn't imploding, and people need to be able to laugh.

  • I do not think that this was the time or the place for such political bashing. Is this what our next election is going to be like? I would like to think that the Office of the Presidency would show more decorum. This became such a big joke that I have no faith in either side and hope that someone steps forward that can show that they are capable of being an adult and know how to handle themselves in the public eye.

  • The only joke is Seth Meyers.

    Trump may be a joke but nothing this guy said was.

    Obama was funnier and that not even his job.

    And just because you agree with what this unfunny tool said, dont pretend he was funny.

  • @WVMADMAN1  Are you stupid? Seth Meyers is hilarious.

  • Are there seriously this many people who think Trump is some kind of badass and not just a festering pile of shit? Or has trolling just gotten more popular lately?

  • I don't take Trump seriously as a presidential contender. If he really wants to be president, his acting like a fool is not the way to go about getting people to want to vote for him. on the other hand, he did get Obama to finally release his birth certificte, which he should have done more than two years ago, becuase when you talk about openess and transparency, you practice what you preach. Thats called Leadership.

  • I would LOVE to have a socialist, Muslim president! What we have is a bought and paid for, middle of the road , typical politician..

    l

    Trump stated this foolishness, it was great to watch him squirm! hahahahah

  • Who is Seth Meyers?

  • @blrenx Saturday Night Live news desk

  • @blrenx , um, he's the fellow speaking in this video. Look at the titles at the top of the youtube videos, they often give explanations so you don't have to ask stupid questions.

  • Wow I never though I would see our president act in such a mean way it really lowers the office and himself. Donald Trump must really be getting under his skin

  • Talks tough with the president close. Put him and Trump face to face alone and seth would shit his pants.That would be just a debate to.

  • I was not expecting that, good on Seth Meyers!

  • Obama did release his birth certificate During the election. Everyone forgets that b/c they listen to the talking heads @ Fox.

  • @bkolar74 TELL EVERY ONE ONE MORE TIME bkolar74 BECAUSE I THINK THEY NEED TO HEAR THAT AGAIN. We have been saying that for years and it seems so ironic that every one forgets that the reason no one has even thought about it till now is because obama debunked it years ago! THumbs up!

  • Trump was stone cold

  • Holy moly, I just peed myself laughing! Donald Trump is an idiot! Frikken brilliant job Seth!

  • HAHAHAHA

  • @3dartistguy So you just took my insult to you and repeated it to me, and thought you were, what, clever? Your comment was the intellectual equivalent of ''I know you are but what am I.'' Your rationale is the equivalent of witch doctorism through reading chicken bones. At least that would be a more plausible source of information than where you get your propaganda; fox ''news'' and the KKK weekly. You're not unemployed because of afirmative action, you're unemployed because of GED requirements.

  • Dude, I dont belong to the KKK and I find that personally insulting. I am NOT a racist, asshole! I believe in true equal opprountity. I don't believe in Affirmative Action, or quotas or racial preferences. even in my college I had some stupid liberal teacher asking where all the female web designers were, even though you can't tell the race and gender of someone who created a website. Your the real racist here, not me. I am for equal opportunity, you are NOT since you support affirmative action.

  • @3dartistguy Don't worry, I got your back. You don't sound racist at all.

  • yeah, right, don't patronize me. I OPPOSE racist policy. IM the VICTIM Of reverse discrimination because of Affirmative Action. Yes, I complain about being denied a job because of reverse discrimination. HOW does that make me a racist? I believe in equal opportunity for all, NOT preferences, How does that make a RACIST? i do not believe i am superior to anyone because of my race. again, i am the victim of reverse discrimination.

  • @3dartistguy Haha, reverse discrimination. Poor white people, everybody discriminates against us. Also Obama didn't release his birth certificate because HE HAD NO REASON TO other than to placate insane people.

  • well apparently he did.

  • @3dartistguy using the term reverse discrimination makes you look like a retard, if you have been discriminated against because of race that is called racism, leave it to a stupid racist to assume that because it happens to a white person it is "reverse" racism

  • Excuse me, if you support Affirmative Action, than that makes YOU a racist. I have heard the term "reverse discrimination" lots of times, so it doesn't make me a retard, Why don't you get an education? Reverse Discrimination is real. Most stupid liberals ASSUME that everyone who is white is a racist, and when you ASSume that makes an ASS out of U and me, and thats why they think Affirmtive aciton is needed when its not, but again, they use the race card every chance they get to get their way.

  • @3dartistguy "play the race card" huh, you dont hear me complaining about not having a job because of my race. im white and have a job, and thats because im not a lazy good for nothing moron like you. get off your fat ass and go get a job you lazy bastard, stop blaming the govt for all your problems, stop living off my tax dollars, and stop using phrases like "reverse discrimination" that make you sound stupid, further reducing your already slim chance of finding employment.

  • @3dartistguy Well, don't you think you're being a little sensitive? I wasn't being sarcastic with my comment; I was simply saying that I understand where you're coming from.I see myself as Canadian first, and thus, I don't really think that race should play a factor in being hired for the job. We all know that injustices were made to everyone of all races and religious backgrounds. Nowadays, that's not really true. White people TODAY should not be paying the price for what their ancestors did.

  • @3dartistguy You have no credibility. You are mentally inepy. You actually think the problems facing your country are NPR and foreign aid. Those are not even big enough to be drops in the debt bucket. They are, however, Fox ''News'' manufactured distractions of the moment, hence the reason brainless followers like you are now espousing their vilification. I'm shocked you haven't yet asked ''to see the birth certificate.'' And you think the US military industrial complex is not funded enough?!

  • Funny how they found it necessary to dis him so much.

    Interesting...

    Think people.

  • @knoose The fact that you can't laugh at yourself really shows how pompous you really are.

    But I didn't think his jokes were funny. I found the reactions made by people like you to be funnier.

    Give me a break. Can't take a joke?

  • Dis who? Trump? The man attacks EVERYBODY!!! Palin, Obama, Bush, EVERYBODY is stupid but the Donald?? Look at that hard cold stare of Donald's....he is furious and after that he called Meyers a "STUTTERER" who is without talent. Trump is a child, dude, and a narcissistic one to boot. Look at the symptoms of narcissism - it describes Donald to a T. Serious, go check out the symptoms of narcissim.

  • but i still think seth is a hot piece :)

  • Yow. Not that I don't think El Trump deserves all the crap he's getting thrown at him - he totally does - but this is oh so painful to watch. And only partly because lots of it isn't funny. Meyers just seems vindictive. Even the President's not amused.

  • Maybe 1/3 of those jokes were funny, but the rest sucked.

  • Trump should learn by now to not mess with President Obama... just ask Osama Bin Laden... oops too late to ask him.

  • @naturalmystic33 Trump is Osama as far as I'm concerned and should be treated the same.

  • @naturalmystic33 - Yeah, baby - go, Commander-In-Chief!

  • HAHA

  • They invite Trump to a dinner, and openly attack him, but do not let speak? That's not fair.

  • Wow.. I totally applaud Obama for his comments and jokes, but this guy went way too far. Not that i like Trump (i happen to have a brain) but because it totally made it look as if Obama went and got his friends to back him up and pretty much "roast" Trump.. And now, for the second time, Trump wins, because now he'll play the victim... So yeah, Obama's comments sounded intelligent and funny, but this guy totally crossed the line and again, Obama is gonna look like the fool..

  • Somebody please check Donald Trump for a pulse.

  • Donald Trump looked like he was a lamb in a den of vipers.

    Each time people laughed out loud, it's like getting his flesh bitten off.

    It must have hurt inside.

    Poor little rich boy.

    He must have wished his toupee was bigger so he can hide underneath it.

    He looked so emotionless on the outside, but inside you can tell he is seething with anger.

  • @Insubordinate90

    Why do you think Obama chose him to deliver the harsher jokes?

    Would it make sense for Obama to sound like the prick?

    Do you honestly believe Obama's heavy hand was not behind this event?

    Why do you think Fox News and Donald Trump were invited to this event?

  • @Insubordinate90 trump shouldent be allowed in the white house, just as Insureabort90 shouldent post comments

  • Obama's roast was funny and classy. Meyers was over the top and mean spirited.

  • @ethnoquest That was about as unfunny as he typically is on SNL.

  • I would not be amused,either.

  • 49 people got owned by Seth Myers

  • Great! Thank you!!!!!  I can see the Donald was not amused. Let's do this every Saturday.

  • The Jewish Seth Meyers carries out a search and destroy mission against Obama's opponents - nothing new here. Jews like Seth have been at the forefront of undermining White Culture in the US for generations.

  • @billmillertx - Wow anti Semitic are we? You know we already kicked people like you in the teeth in 1944-1945. So would you kindly shut up go back to your hole and leave the rest of the civilized world alone. kthxbai

  • @theguardianreturns Oh "we" did that? We didn't go to war against "anti-Semitism" --- Churchill and FDR fully understood the nature of Jews.

  • YES, I love this

  • ‎"Donald Trump! If you can't laugh at yourself, we'll do it for you!"

  • Trump should just let these insults fall off his back. It is expected after the birth certificate stuff.....and also expected considering Hollywood celebrities are UP OBAMA'S ASS. So there will be a few weeks of anti-Trump venom.

    But don't give up, Donald.

    There is still time to waste Obama and his pussy bitch foreign policies, along with his Leg Humping pussy bitch celebrity friends. Just let this pass, then unload your BIG GUNS (and I don't mean the hair).

  • @Joelomite tell me...is ignorance bliss? because it sounds pretty blissful from where you're standing

  • @stophating123 I'll admit that Obama did and EXCELLENT job in killing OBL. It's one of the few great foreign policy decisions he's made. I hope he makes more like this. I may change my opinion about him....

  • "We need to understand the more government spends, the more freedom is lost... Instead of simply debating spending levels, we ought to be debating whether the departments, agencies, and programs funded by the budget should exist at all." – Ron Paul

    A man who trully understands the Constitution, He has my vote!

  • damn trump looked pissed lol

  • @ztakacire

    What is Trump going to do to Seth? Kill and maim him for throwing cheap shot? Is Trump that sensitive?

    What will Trump accomplish from doing harm? Vindictive much?

    Is Trump going to FIRE him like an Apprentice contestant?

    Is Trump going to prevent Seth from getting a job? Infact Seth's career is probably given a boost from this.

    Seth is nothing but a tool, wielded behind the heavy hand of the Presidency and his minions.

  • Trump can only redeem himself if he donated a LOT of money, time, riches and resources to the victims of the tornadoes in Alabama.... if he really cared for the Blacks (who were among the victims.)

  • @geishasecrets The more the Republicans do for blacks the more they despise them. Ask Lincoln.

  • @pacerboy11

    Since Lincoln's time what has the Republican Party done for the Black people?

    Lincoln, not the Republican party of this era, signed the Emancipation Proclamation.

  • @geishasecrets Tried to get them to better themselves, While democrats enslave them through monetary "entitlements". Lincoln, a Republican signed it. He would not be for entitlements. He would be for blacks bettering themselves, not remain the slaves the Dems have made them.

  • @pacerboy11

    In what ways have the Republicans tried to get them to "better themselves"?

    What policies have the Republicans created to try to accomplish this?

    Do you think the Republicans of this era would have signed the Emancipation Proclamation?

    Why do you think t
