Amber Ruffin Calls Out Steve Bannon for Telling Elon Musk to "Go Back to Africa"

[@maeannengo4908]

The way she went off camera is the cherry on top 🎂

[@wendieking4184]

She's one comedian who always makes me laugh.

[@vaughanadlem8180]

As a white South African: it's ok, we don't want him back.... You let him in, not our problem anymore.

[@CAP198462]

But he’s a Boer. Get my Rorke’s drift. I Isandlwana see him no more,.

[@reviewcentral1209]

I can't say I blame you for feeling that way.

[@singletona082]

He's everyone's problem thanks to promoting climate change denial and fossil fuel industries. He's made himself everyoen's problem.

[@tiffanycooper300]

He broke the visa law when he came here, he's going back one way or another😂😂 now what you do while he's in transit at the halfway mid Ocean point is up to you. That boat could possibly sink in shark infested waters for all we know and we would not care

[@peternicholas2393]

We knew he was a snake when we took him in

Amber Ruffin, as a black American, I'm DYING! There. I am dead now.

[@ConstantChaos1]

Unfortunately Bannon and Muskrat would probably be happy abt that

Amber's pop in and pop out were flawless. 😂

A new segment? "Amber Pops In" maybe? Pops up? I love this!

[@radicalross7700]

Not a new segment. She's been doing this for a few years. But those are good names for it.

[@oposkainaxei]

AMBEEEEEER! ❤❤❤❤

[@CybershamanX]

Love hearing Seth chuckle in the background.

[@mvvpro8688]

Just like Australia would never want Rupert Murdoch back, South Africa is happy to never see Elon again.

I would not be at all surprised if it turned out that Elon didn't have any friends. And I'm completely convinced that Trump doesn't.

i feel like Amber has a dramatic movie role in her future

[@jeffreypaul734]

This reminds me of when a former student asked if Dave Matthews's kids could claim to be African-American on their college applications. You know, back when that mattered.

[@ZachariahWiedeman]

Someday, Amber Ruffin is going to find the right project to headline, she's going to click with a wide, mainstream audience, and then she's going to take over the world and become the Beyonce of comedy. And we're all gunna be like, "OMG, rememeber when she was on Late Night?? Can you believe she was on that? Humble beginnings indeed..."

[@ammaleslie509]

I watched every episode of The Amber Ruffin Show. Hope she gets another chance soon!!!

[@victoriabaker4400]

oooooo that was delicious!!!!! Love the spring up and sink down for the camera, we need to still have silly fun!

[@edfagan4251]

Props to the crew for building Amber that schadenfreude trapdoor for her exit on such short notice.

[@1newbert]

Why doesn’t the show let Amber guest host when Seth goes on vacation?

[@peternicholas2393]

I don't know if this is realistic, but I love the idea!

[@ammaleslie509]

​@@peternicholas2393I've asked that question many times. Or at least do occasional guest hosting!

[@1newbert]

@ ??? Why not? Every other talk show brings in guest hosts. Kimmel has different celebrities replace him. It would also give her a head start if she wants to have her own talk show. She had that little offshoot show for awhile, let her have a good writing team and a budget and see what happens.

But you are not clever or funny whatever you are this early in the morning SMH

[@richardheilmann4007]

Outstanding!

[@petermcmillan3446]

I've been told by English people to go back to Scotland, although we're all in the UK. But when I was in Aberdeen, I did once hear an Aberdonian tell a Glaswegian to go back to Glasgow; and when I lived near Elgin, I once mistakenly told a guy from Mosstodloch to go back to lhanbryde. James Baldwin wrote about this sort of thing, but since his books are being banned in your schools, there's no point bringing it up.

[@SimonBuchanNz]

I think the more bizarrely specific the bigotry is, the more socially acceptable it is.

[@thomasdequincey5811]

I don't understand anything about this segment. 1- Musk was born in South Africa, so what's the problem? 2 - Why can't Seth Myers talk about it? 3 - Amber Ruffin isn't funny, so why get her to talk about it?

[@cicalinarrot]

Bannon was probably waiting for a context that made that sentence sound almost appropriate since he came to know there's no such thing as an "N-word pass".

[@daniellehm]

As a South African the USA can keep him there. Thanks

[@SarahGarcia-m2j]

[@Ivehadenuff]

[@solvseus]

I asked Michael to say hello to Amber for me, but I don't think he has yet.

[@whatifschrodingersboxwasacofin]

If we use ‘country of origin’ instead of ‘home country’ things make more sense. We all originated somewhere. Presumably people live at home, so that’s an unhelpful term if one has no intention of returning permanently. ‘Home’ is movable. ‘Origin’ isn’t.

[@ExcuseMeSayAgain]

PURE HILARIOUS!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@temporaladvisor3958]

Telling Musk to go back to South Africa would be cruel to South Africans who don't deserve this form of punishment. Bannon should've told Musk to get on his rocket to Mars. See, not offensive or threatening to innocent people. A total and complete win-win.

[@richardroll5144]

It was a generalization. I really don't have a problem with someone telling someone else he has a problem to go back to where he came from.

[@Imhexed]

Love Amber, also wonderful on Have I Got News for You

I just find it wierd as if he was from Ireland and he said go back to ireland, no one would complain 😛
