OMG, he's just about my favorite comedian, now, esp. since Jonathan Winters and Robin Williams are gone. My wife says I've picked-up some expressions and a couple mannerisms from each of them; maybe, from Jerry Seinfeld, too. Ooops. :oops: :roll: :wink: :mrgreen:

Lewis Black is great...material-wise he must feel like he hit the jackpot with the past election.

He made that very point in his last special - just pointed at the screen and stated, "My job is done..."

The latest, seen in print and on media:
Kelly Ann Conway has been referred to , now, as the Trump Whisperer.
I think that is a flawless example of the kind of insight and gift-for-words-and-concepts humor that characterizes the NYC scene. :D

I think it's pertinent, given the effect she had on Trump and the campaign. :D

I can only hope someone gives the POTUS-in-waiting some thicker skin for Christmas, the man has to learn how to take some ribbing or we're all in trouble.

BobD

Makes sense to me. However, his need to be adored is stronger, it appears to many. I'll bet he can't say the word "humility" without stuttering, when contemplating himself.
